One of the newest features in Google Mail is the Smart Compose.  It can be a little disconcerting if you choose to use it - it gets "smarter" over time, so in addition to suggesting phrases that are plain common (i.e. Thank you, Have a nice day) it will begin to pick up on phrases that are commonly used by you.  This is a feature that can be turned on or off.  When it first appears in your mail, it is automatically on and you will see the pop-up window below which tells you it is on and also gives a link to turn it off - When on, as you first start to use it it will pop in the suggestion in gray, and notify you that you need to use tab to accept the suggestion - So, to accept it hit tab; to not accept it keep typing what you want. After you use it awhile, it will simply pop in the suggestion (the tab reminder goes away) - You can turn this feature on/off in your Mail settings -  It is found under the General settings, and easily changed from on...
