Google Gboard can now predict whole phrases and emojis based on your drawings

Google is boosting the machine learning capabilities of its official keyboard app with its latest update. The Gboard doesn’t just predict the next word you’re about to type, this time it’s working to predict full phrases based on your typing behaviour. This feature is going to be particularly useful to help cut down texting time. Aside from that, you can now also draw an emoji and Gboard will predict what it is you’re drawing. And while it might be faster to just swipe through the emojis, this might be a way for Google to study your drawing habits and get information from that. Android users of the Gboard app are getting the new features now, iOS users will have to wait for a bit.
