Artificial intelligence, or rather, chatbots and virtual assistants based on gemenites and Increasingly popular tools Among all types of users, professionals from different specialties that use them as a work tools, to all those who use an AI to plan their next trip.
However, a constant and permanent concern of many people is How much artificial intelligence about our subject knows. If we share private data and information, how much AI remembers and why use my data? If you are a Gemini user and you are concerned about these aspects related to your privacy, there is a very simple way to eliminate everything that knows about you and prevent you from learning more, at least to a certain extent.
How to eliminate what Gemini knows from you, step by step
Although these tools promise confidentiality and protect our data, it is more than reasonable to doubt the companies responsible for their creation, their development and their maintenance, and Take measures to protect our data and confidential information. After all, some may fear that when you ask for a tool like Chatgpt or Gemini to help you write an email that includes private data.
Likewise, it is possible that many discouragement of an AI like Gemini remember our history of research and consultation, remember the context of our preferences and our subjects of interest, among others. Google explains that it uses this information to “improve experience with different products and services”, and this information also allows Gemini Don't forget some details to give us better answers linked to the context of a conversation.
Finally and above all, conversations can be used to Train and improve gemino modelAlthough before doing so, they eliminate information that can be identified, including personal details.
If you are a person who wishes to protect your data online, including the way Gemini use it, You can follow these steps::
- In the application of Android gemstones (or in its version for the web on the mobile), click on your avatar in the upper right corner
- Then click 'Gemini activity'About the menu
On this page, at the bottom, you can see all the information that Gemini has collected about you on different dates, including the current date and the previous dates. Gemini says that cat activity is deleted automatically after spending 72 hours, however, guests, consultations and requests can be maintained over time.
And this information comes not only from the application of Gemini (or the web version), but also obtains information if we use Gemini via the mobile virtual assistant or in other applications, such as Google Docs or Gmail (For example, if we ask Gemini to help us write an email).
We have two options to delete the information collected by Gemini:
First, we can directly Eliminate stored activity. On the Gemini activity screen, we follow these steps:
- We click on 'DELETE'
- We select the Data we want to delete, depending on the date in which this activity was carried out. The options are as follows: eliminate the activity of the last hour, eliminate the activity of the last day, eliminate all the activity of Gemini since we started to use it or eliminate a personalized period of time.
This eliminates the activity of the period we select, but does not prevent Gemini from continuing to collect and “remember” information. If that's what you want, Follow the steps of the second option::
- Optional 'Activity in applications with Gemini“Click” Disable “
- Select what you want to do: “deactivate” prevent new conversations and data from being saved, but does not eliminate the previous activity. “Disable and delete activity” prevents new data from being saved and also eliminates the previous activity in Gemini.
This option, deactivating activity in Gemini, not only prevents new data from being saved, but also prevents Gemini from using this information to train and improve its AI model. In addition, by deactivating the activity, not only prevents Gemini from saving activity in the application of Gemini, but also when we use Gemini in other applications, such as Google Docs.
Gemini allows us to have greater control of our activity, research and information history via these options. It is in us to decide what we want to do, if we allow gemini to store this story or to avoid it.
