Google's AI Mode can now tap into your Gmail and Photos to provide tailored responses | TechCrunch
"By bringing Personal Intelligence to Gemini and AI Mode, Google is leveraging the wealth of user data already within its ecosystem. Since users already rely on services like Gmail and Photos, Google can deliver more personalized experiences that rivals can't easily match. Of course, not everyone wants AI looking at their photos and emails, so you can turn Personal Intelligence on or off at any time."
""With Personal Intelligence, recommendations don't just match your interests - they fit seamlessly into your life," Robby Stein, VP of Product, Google Search, explained in a blog post. "You don't have to constantly explain your preferences or existing plans, it selects recommendations just for you, right from the start." Say you're planning a vacation and searching for things to do and places to eat that everyone in your family will enjoy."
"With Personal Intelligence, AI Mode can draw on your hotel booking in Gmail and past travel memories in Google Photos to suggest a tailored itinerary with something for everyone. For example, you might see recommendations like an old-timey ice cream parlor based on the many ice cream selfies stored in Google Photos. Google notes that AI Mode won't just give you a generic list of restaurants and activities; it instead provides a personalized starting point for planning."
Google is expanding Personal Intelligence into AI Mode, enabling the conversational Search feature to access Gmail, Google Photos, Search, and YouTube history for personalized responses. The feature is opt-in and rolls out to Google AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers in English in the U.S. Personal Intelligence leverages existing user data to tailor recommendations, drawing on items like hotel bookings and travel photos to suggest tailored itineraries. Users can toggle Personal Intelligence on or off to control privacy. Google positions the feature to provide customized starting points for planning rather than generic results, aiming to integrate recommendations into users' lives.
