Important: This article is referring to Google Workspace Labs, which is a trusted tester program for users to try new AI features. The Workspace Labs program is currently available to trusted testers in US English, and may not be available in your country. To check if you have access to Workspace Labs program features, open a new sheet on Google Sheets and look for “Help me organize” sidebar on the right side of the sheet
On Google Sheets, enhanced Smart Fill suggestions can make manual text processing tasks easier for you by automatically detecting the relationship between incomplete column pairs and using AI to predict the remaining values, allowing them to be instantly filled.
This feature is currently available on desktop.
How Labs program data in Google Sheets is collected

- Reject the suggestion by clicking the cancel icon on the expanded suggestion pill to reject that suggestion for the range.
Example use cases of enhanced Smart Fill:
