Google's data-devouring AI wants everyone's personal information

At the same time, the more data it has, the more Google learns about you to feed into its AI machine. Every morning, it scours through the information saved in your Google apps to surface a daily agenda of tasks, reminders, and events custom-tailored for you.

Every morning, it scours through the information saved in your Google apps to surface a daily agenda of tasks, reminders, and events custom-tailored for you.

At the same time, the more data it has, the more Google learns about you to feed into its AI machine.

Once Daily Brief is enabled, Gemini can dig through everyone's Google apps in search of relevant information.

The useful part

Every morning, it scours through the information saved in your Google apps to surface a daily agenda of tasks, reminders, and events custom-tailored for you. Once Daily Brief is enabled, Gemini can dig through everyone's Google apps in search of relevant information. For those in the Google ecosystem, it can be a handy tool to remember things you otherwise forgot — a birthday for a loved one, to follow up on an email you sent the other day, to dig deeper into a topic you searched on Google.

How it works

  • At the same time, the more data it has, the more Google learns about you to feed into its AI machine.
  • It's available on iOS and the web too, expanding its reach to cover practically any user with a Google account.
  • Months later, the data-devouring feature is now available for everybody.
  • Here's how to make sure it isn't already gobbling up your private data.
  • If you're not an avid Google user, though, it's mostly useless.

What to take from it

Since Daily Brief is part of the Gemini core experience, it isn't exclusive to Google's Pixel phone series or even Android.

Details worth keeping

Daily Brief is a relatively new feature built into the Google Gemini app. Brief earlier this year, I found it paradoxical. RELATED: <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/tech...
