Maybe you’ve noticed it too. A little sparkle or star button that wasn’t there before. A message that says “ask AI” or “help me write.”

That’s not a glitch, and it’s not a virus. The big tech companies have been adding AI assistants right into the apps millions of us already use.

🐾 · · · 🐾

Where to look

Google: Gemini, in Google apps and on many Android phones.

Microsoft: Copilot, in Windows and the Edge web browser.

Meta: Meta AI, inside WhatsApp, Facebook, Messenger and Instagram.

Apple: Apple Intelligence, working alongside Siri on newer iPhones.

These change often. Not sure what’s on your device? Ask the AI you already use:

“Is there an AI assistant built into [the app or device, for example: my Android phone, Gmail, Microsoft Edge, WhatsApp]? Explain in plain language how to open it and how to turn it off if I don’t want it. If you’re not sure, or this may have changed, tell me.”

🐾 · · · 🐾

What they’re good for

Quick jobs, right where you already are. Summarizing a long email. Suggesting a reply. Answering a quick question. Try:

“Summarize this in three short bullet points, and tell me if I need to do anything, and by when. [paste an email or message, with names and personal details removed]”

The one rule: know who’s listening

When you type into a built in AI, your words go to the company that made it. And if you ask Meta AI something in a group chat, other people in that chat may see the question and the answer.

So keep the golden rule: no account numbers, no passwords, no private health details.
