Google's new memory feature is called Personal Context, and it remembers key parts of your previous conversations, and uses them to personalize new chats. Of course, not everyone will be happy about this, as it carries privacy and usability concerns. But Google is so confident about this new feature that it’s enabling it by default for all users (except for those in certain countries). For one-off chats, you're now supposed to use the new Temporary Chat feature instead. Thankfully, if Personal Context isn't your thing, you can disable it.
Here's how Google is pitching this. Let's say you've previously asked Gemini to summarize non-fiction books for you. Now, when you ask it to suggest books, according to Google, "it may suggest books with similar themes as to those you've discussed before." Similarly if you've looked up comic books before, it might suggest comic book themed parties when you're brainstorming for birthday party ideas. If you don't want your past chats flavoring new ones, or you don't want Google to remember your passing interests, this could be a problem.
With that in mind, here's a blanket disclaimer: you shouldn't share any personal information or sensitive information with Gemini or any other AI chatbot, precisely because of this lack of transparency. But if that's not enough for you, you can also disable this feature outright.
How to disable the Personal Context memory feature in Gemini
As mentioned above, the new Personal Context feature in Gemini will be enabled for all users starting now. It’s a slow global rollout, though, so it might take a couple of weeks to reach you. If you’re under 18, or signed into a work or school Google Account, you won’t be able to access this feature. According to Google, it’s also not available in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom. It will start to roll out with the Gemini 2.5 Pro model, and then will make its way to the 2.5 Flash model as well.
