I think, Artificial intelligence & deep learning techniques try to “help” the user make decisions that are considered business friendly in many ways from time to bandwidth and not necessarily deep packet inspection of the content.

If for instance Google  picked data globally(and here I don’t mean geographic spread but high level metadata) on specific signed emails that are sent several times with same subject on instance 1 then on instance 2 with an attachment, the system should know that users are forgetting to include attachments. Two instances indicates a  loss of business time and reuse of bandwidth for an event that should have been done only once ;so why not remind user to make it right in instance one.

Don't know if this makes sense, but if you try sending an email on gmail, with the word "attached" in your email body, gmail will always hold on sending and propose that you consider whether you want to attach a file. This seems a bit unsettling, does this mean email providers actually peruse the content of the emails prior / during sending?

I know we agree to terms, but doesn't it go against privacy policies?
