"Personal Intelligence allows Gemini to reference past conversations and access your data in other Google services, including Gmail, Calendar, Photos, and search history, without you specifically prompting it to look in those sources. It's entirely opt-in, and you choose which apps Gemini can access and which it can't. It's in beta and only available to people with AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions at the moment."
"If that all sounds familiar, it's because Gemini already offered the option to hook into your Workspace apps. But it required more work on the user's part - I always found I needed to explicitly ask it to check something in my email or on my calendar if I wanted it to use those as sources. Now, if the prompt seems like it merits a trip to your inbox to look for an email about a concert ticket, it will do so."
Gemini has surged ahead of competitors and improved at generating convincing imagery, winning notable business partnerships. Personal Intelligence enables Gemini to reference past conversations and access user data in Gmail, Calendar, Photos, and search history when relevant. The feature is opt-in, allows users to select which apps Gemini can access, and is currently in beta for AI Pro and Ultra subscribers. Previously users had to explicitly request data checks; Personal Intelligence lets the model proactively consult linked sources when a prompt merits it. The proactive access increases usefulness by reducing the need to prompt for specific sources, while raising implicit control and privacy considerations.
