Google is finally bringing a crucial new feature to Gemini that will solve a key pain point of interacting with its AI chatbot. The company is enabling a memory feature which allows Gemini to pull up details from a past conversation.
“Whether you’re asking a question about something you’ve already discussed, or asking Gemini to summarize a previous conversation, Gemini now uses information from relevant chats to craft a response,” says a Google update.
So far, if users wanted to reference any detail from a conversation they had with Gemini in the past, they had to pull up their chat history. Once users found the conversation, they could shoot any further queries for the chatbot to handle in that particular context.
Of course, the process is cumbersome, especially if you are trying to recall details from a chat you had long ago. But the worst part is that there is no search function in the Gemini chat history.
Unlike the way you look up for forgotten tabs in a browser history, Gemini would have users scrolling unless they found the conversation they were looking for and pick up from there.
This can be a nuisance, if your chats are separated across different Gemini models. Moreover, for people who use Gemini for more intimate purposes, such as seeking emotional support or any form of help, lack of memory can quickly degrade the experience.
A robust memory is one of the most highly requested features in online communities where people discuss how they use chatbots for objectives like virtual companionship. Apps like Nomi are the best example where chatbots with a memory system are highly sought-after.
For easier access, however, Google has offered the option to pin important chats. The latest Gemini tweak is a step in the right direction, but do keep in mind that you must have Gemini App Activity enabled for the memory feature to work.
The new memory feature in Gemini currently supports only English language and available for users with a Google One AI Premium subscription. It will be available across Gemini’s web and mobile platforms.
Subscribers can also access the new Gemini 2.0 series experimental models that Google released a few days ago. The company says support for more languages will arrive soon, and it will also be extended to Enterprise and Workspace Business customers in the coming weeks.
