I Let Pangram Loose on My Gmail Inbox. Here’s How Much AI It Found

But what about your inbox? Just how many of your friends, family members, clients, and colleagues are using AI to compose their emails? Is that store newsletter you just signed up for written by a real person or a bot? It's not always easy to tell.

The Pangram AI text and image detector tool has now extended its reach into your Gmail inbox. The company makes a browser extension that sits in Gmail and runs incoming messages through its algorithms to try to detect AI writing.

You will need at least the $20-per-month individual plan on Pangram to use the Gmail integration—it's not available on the free tier. I tested it to see how accurate it appears to be based on my recent Gmail conversations.
