Google Docs has introduced a new feature called the AI-generated "AI Summary" building block, powered by Gemini. It allows users to insert or edit summaries directly into their documents by navigating to Insert > Building Blocks > AI Summary or using the "@" shortcut. Users can refresh summaries when document changes are made, which is especially useful for long documents like technical guides, meeting notes, or marketing briefs.
