Google Gemini Enhances AI Chats with Receipts

Google's Gemini AI chatbot has just gotten a nifty upgrade that lets it remember and use info from your past chats, according to a recent blog post. Now, Gemini can sum up old conversations or pull up details you mentioned in different threads. This means you don't have to keep repeating yourself or dig through old messages to find what you need.
Starting today, English-speaking folks who pay $20 a month for Google One AI Premium can use this new recall feature. Google plans to roll it out to more languages and enterprise users in the coming weeks.
The idea behind this update is to make chatting with Gemini feel more natural and personal. But, not everyone might be cool with the idea of their old chats being stored.
To tackle privacy worries, Google lets you check, delete, or set how long your chat history sticks around. You can even switch off the recall feature completely by heading to the "My Activity" page in Gemini. Google also promises they won't use your chat history to train their AI models.
It's not just Google; other AI chatbot makers are also playing around with memory and recall features. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, mentioned that better memory is one of the top things people want from ChatGPT.
Both Google and OpenAI have added general "memory" features to their chatbots over the last year. These let ChatGPT and Gemini remember little things about you, like your name, what you like to eat, or that you'd rather bike than drive. But, these memory features don't automatically keep track of your entire chat history like Gemini's new recall feature does.

Gemini's new feature is a lifesaver! No more repeating myself in chats. It remembers everything, which is super handy. But sometimes it gets a bit confused with similar topics from different chats. Still, a huge improvement!

Geminiの新機能は本当に助かります!チャットで同じことを繰り返す必要がなくなりました。すべてを覚えているので、とても便利です。ただ、時々異なるチャットの類似トピックで混乱することがあります。それでも、大きな改善ですね!

Gemini의 새 기능 정말 도움이 돼요! 채팅에서 같은 말을 반복할 필요가 없어졌어요. 모든 걸 기억해서 너무 편리해요. 다만, 때때로 다른 채팅의 유사한 주제에서 혼란스러워하는 것 같아요. 그래도 큰 개선이에요!

A nova funcionalidade do Gemini é um salva-vidas! Não preciso mais repetir as coisas nas conversas. Ele lembra de tudo, o que é super útil. Mas às vezes se confunde com tópicos semelhantes de diferentes conversas. Ainda assim, uma grande melhoria!

¡La nueva función de Gemini es un salvavidas! Ya no tengo que repetirme en los chats. Recuerda todo, lo cual es súper útil. Pero a veces se confunde un poco con temas similares de diferentes chats. Aún así, una gran mejora!

Google Gemini's new feature is pretty cool! It remembers stuff from past chats, so no more repeating myself. It's like having a personal assistant with a perfect memory. The only thing is, sometimes it brings up stuff I'd rather forget. But overall, it's a solid upgrade!
