Google last week rolled out Goals in Google Calendar, a feature designed to help users achieve their personal goals.
Users set a goal, such as working out more often, and answer relevant questions, such as how often they want to work out and the best time for them to do so. Calendar then will sift through their schedules and select the best time to allocate for the task.
Calendar uses artificial intelligence, so it will get better at scheduling the more often it's used, the company said.
"With this launch, Google is bringing machine intelligence to our calendar app to help users make the most of their time," Google spokesperson Brooks Hocog remarked.

"Goals will find time for you and block it off," he told TechNewsWorld. "You'll also get reminder notifications."
Users can choose to defer the task to another time, which Google will find for them.
"Google learns your schedule based on your confirmation and deferment patterns, and will stick around to motivate you to achieve your goals," Hocog explained.
Users who are pressed for time are very likely to try out the feature, "especially if they're already using the Google Calendar app," he contended.
The purpose of Goals "is to help you spend more time on the things you care about, and so far we see compelling evidence that scheduling time on your calendar is the best way to do that," Hocog said. "And we want to make this as easy for the user as possible."
