How can AI reply using MY thoughts (gist / outline)?
You already know what to say (bullets, mixed Chinese/English notes) and want the model to expand it into a polished reply.
When to use this
Use Polish my gist… (wording in English UI) / 用我的大意润色… (Chinese UI) when you already know what you want to say but need help with tone, structure, or the recipient’s language.
- Step 1 — Open the secondary menu
Next to the main AI reply button, click the narrow chevron button. A small menu opens.
- Step 2 — Choose “Polish my gist…”
This opens the AI reply dialog instead of immediately generating from the full thread alone.
- Step 3 — Type your gist
In the text area labelled for your reply gist, write bullets or rough sentences in any language — mixed Chinese/English is OK. Example: “同意延期到周五;请附上报价 PDF;语气正式。”
- Step 4 — Pick tone (optional)
Select tone: match original, formal, friendly, or concise. This steers how the expansion sounds.
- Step 5 — Generate
Click Generate reply. The model turns your gist into a full reply aimed at the recipient’s language/context.
- Step 6 — Edit the draft pane
The left pane shows the editable reply. Adjust wording, add facts, remove hallucinations.
- Step 7 — Back-translation (read-only)
If you enabled cross-language review, the dialog also shows a read-only back-translation so you can sanity-check meaning before inserting into compose.
- Step 8 — Confirm
Click Use this reply to open the compose window with the final text. Still review once more before sending.
