Gmail could start highlighting emails related to the one you’re reading (APK teardown)
Google appears to be developing a “related emails” feature for Gmail. When active, emails related to the one you’re reading would appear at the bottom. It’s not yet clear how Google will choose which emails to surface in this manner. Recommendation algorithms are nothing short of ubiquitous, and it feels like you can’t read a news article, listen to a song, or watch a movie without immediately being presented with a bunch of suggestions for similar content. And while you can easily get caught up in endless debates about whether or not this is ruining our ability to make choices on our own, lots of people really enjoy the convenience it offers, and why not? It makes all the sense in the world that if you’re interested in one thing, you might also be interested in stuff that’s very similar to it. And if that’s good enough for media, why not email, too?
