The features include improved data control and transparency, a Gmail Dark Web Scan Report, AI-powered Safe Browsing, Content Safety API Expansion, and Spam View in Google Drive. Google is also expanding its Content Safety API to flag child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in video content and debuting an "About This Image" tool that offers users more context to ensure reliable access to trustworthy information.
