Google Revamps Gemini Web Panel with Infinite Scroll for Chat History
Google has announced a major update to its Gemini AI assistant, adding an infinite scroll to the chat history in the web panel. The feature allows users to have a smoother experience away from manual pagination while browsing back through conversations.
Key Highlights:
- Infinite Scroll Introduced: Google's Gemini web panel now supports infinite scrolling, allowing users to navigate through their chat history without manual pagination effortlessly.
- Enhanced Contextual Responses: Gemini can recall and reference past conversations, providing more contextually relevant and personalized responses.
- User-Controlled Memory Management: Users can review, delete, or manage how long their conversations are retained, ensuring privacy and control over their data.
- Available for Premium Users: The feature is currently rolling out in English for Gemini Advanced subscribers on the Google One AI Premium Plan, accessible via both web and mobile apps.
- Future Expansion Plans: Google plans to extend this functionality to additional languages and integrate it into Google Workspace Business and Enterprise customers in the coming weeks.
In addition to better navigation, Gemini's recent revision allows the AI to remember and refer to prior interactions. This means that users can have more natural conversations where Gemini is aware of talking points from previous conversations. If a user referenced a topic before, they can now simply ask Gemini to summarize or build upon the previous conversation without needing to prompt Gemini with context.
Privacy and Accessibility Take Center Stage in Gemini's Latest Update
Privacy is still a foundational element of this update. Users have full control over their chat history, with options to view, delete, or decide how long their chats are stored. Users can even choose to store no chats at all, if they want, by disabling the memory feature in the Gemini Apps Activity settings in the Google “My Activity” dashboard.
At the present time, this feature is offered in English to Gemini Advanced subscribers signed up for the Google One AI Premium Plan, via the Gemini web and mobile apps. In the future, Google plans to expand the feature availability to include additional languages and integrate it into Google Workspace Business and Enterprise.
