When you enable this new option, Gemini will provide more personalized responses
The Gemini AI system is quickly becoming a favorite among many, and for good cause. Google developed this system, which has continuously amazed consumers with products such as Nano Banana, Veo 3, Deep Research, and others.
Now, the startup has introduced a new function that elevates it above ChatGPT. While Google's AI system can recall information (similar to the popular OpenAI memory), it can now also deliver highly tailored replies based on user data and information.
Yes, Gemini includes a "personal intelligence" function, which we shall discuss below and how to enable it.
Gemini introduces "Personal Intelligence": What it is and how to activate it.
As Google notes on its official blog, "Personal Intelligence" is a feature that enables Gemini to securely connect to Gmail, Google Photos, YouTube, Google Maps, and other Google services while protecting your data.
By accessing this data, artificial intelligence can provide highly personalized responses and perform complex tasks such as recommending car maintenance based on photos from previous trips or identifying specific details in emails to plan journey routes, all without having to switch between applications.
What distinguishes this technology is its capacity to apply contextual reasoning. Gemini does more than merely gather information; it also analyzes it to predict your requirements. For example, it can recommend a product based on your previous preferences or recognize your vehicle from photographs to recommend appropriate tires.
Google acknowledges that this functionality was created with rigorous privacy guidelines in mind and is deactivated by default. Users select the applications they wish to connect. Do you want to test it? Follow these steps to enable Personal Intelligence:
- Launch the Gemini app via the phone app or website.
Click on your profile photo in the app or "Settings" on the website.
- Select "Personal Intelligence".
Click "Get Started," then scroll down and select "Link All" (if you want Gemini to access all of your Google accounts) or "Choose Apps" (if you only want to link it to certain applications).
Finally, it should be emphasized that this function is now available to select people; we shall see when it becomes available to everybody in the future.
