Google Gemini can proactively analyze users' Gmail, photos, searches
"Alphabet Inc.'s Google said its Gemini artificial intelligence assistant can now proactively tap into users' data across Gmail, Search, Photos and YouTube, an attempt to make its consumer-facing AI product more personalized. Using this extensive digital paper trail, the new feature called Personal Intelligence is designed to make Gemini uniquely helpful, Josh Woodward, a vice president overseeing the Gemini app, Google Labs and AI Studio, wrote in a blog post published Wednesday."
"To preempt any privacy concerns, Google has made Personal Intelligence an opt-in experience, meaning users must choose to turn it on and they can choose which apps are connected to Gemini. For example, you could set it up to ignore your search history but factor in your email, photo library and YouTube viewing history. This sheer volume of personal data lends Google's chatbot a distinct advantage over other AI companies, few of which have as much information about their users."
Gemini can now proactively access a user's data across Gmail, Search, Photos and YouTube through a feature called Personal Intelligence. Personal Intelligence is designed to make Gemini more personalized, proactive and powerful and is launching in the US in beta. The feature is opt-in; users must enable it and can select which apps Gemini can access, such as ignoring search history while allowing email, photos and YouTube history. Gemini previously could retrieve information when prompted, but Personal Intelligence allows automatic tapping into chosen apps to improve responses. Personalization will not be applied to all responses and users can regenerate answers without it.
