Google’s Workspace Intelligence promises privacy while running on your data

Google announced Workspace Intelligence, an AI feature set for Google Workspace that uses organizational data from services like Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and Chat to provide contextual suggestions and task automation. The report focuses on privacy and security controls — including per-user permissions enforcement, admin settings to enable/disable data sources, DLP integration, regional data processing limits, and client-side encryption — and emphasizes that customer data is not used to train external generative models or for advertising.
