Google Warns of Privacy Risks with New AI Assistant “Gemini”
Key Points:
- Google’s new AI assistant, Gemini, collects your conversations, location, feedback, and usage information.
- Be cautious: This includes your actual conversations, not just summaries. They are stored for 3 years, even after deleting activity.
- Don’t share sensitive information: Google may use it to improve AI and might share it with human reviewers.
- Even turning off activity tracking doesn’t prevent conversations from being saved for 72 hours.
Additional Notes:
- This applies to all Gemini apps, not just the main assistant.
- Google claims they don’t sell your information but use it for internal purposes.
Because it already knows everything personal about you from your google account, chrome browser, search history, emails & files, and even your keyboard. Gemini wants to guess, because it’s more exciting that way! 🤩 /s
Heck, these LLMs are really good at summary. Now, they can now summarize all your disparate data, including your weird interactions with Gemini (and associated apps), for advertisers’ and governments’ conveniences!
