Google has recently announced that it is integrating Gemini AI Assistant into Gmail and this has made many users anxious because of concerns related to generative AI reading their personal emails. Google has also mentioned a lot of advantages of this AI integration into Gmail like faster email searches, prioritizing emails, and highlighting important emails with the help of Gemini. However, users are skeptical and question why AI is needed for these tasks and are concerned that AI models would be trained on their emails.
Statista Consumer Insights did a recent survey to find out which email service providers are dominating the US market, and it was no surprise that Gmail is currently being dominated with 75% of the respondents using it. The second most used email provider is Yahoo Mail but it is a lot behind Gmail, with 31% of the respondents using it.
Other email service providers being used by Americans are Microsoft Outlook/Hotmail (25%), Apple iCloud Mail (17%) and AOL Mail (10%). 9% of respondents also reported using At&T Mail, while Spectrum and Xfinity (Comcast) are also being used by 8% and 7% of respondents respectively. The survey was done among 1249 US respondents between the ages of 18 and 64.
