Amidst privacy concerns about Google Gemini AI assistant in Android devices, the tech giant has announced clarifying the policies. Google plans to share a detailed white paper elaborating on how it plans to protect Android users’ data with Gemini AI.
Google Will Soon Share Details About Gemini AI Privacy Practices
Google’s Gemini AI, formerly called ‘Bard,’ recently gained traction after Android users could access the new AI assistant via their mobile phones.
Gemini AI offers users various AI-powered services, such as writing, learning, brainstorming ideas, and more. While the service seems useful, users were skeptical about how their interaction with Gemini AI and the subsequent data sharing would impact their privacy.
AI interactions may sometimes involve sensitive details, affecting user privacy if the service provider stores the data. This gets even more intense when it comes to Google – a firm infamous for harvesting users’ data.
Nonetheless, Google has now decided to clear the air by sharing a detailed write-up on how Gemini AI impacts users’ privacy.
As explained in its recent post, Google is ‘reimagining’ Android users’ interaction with Gemini while respecting their privacy. Below is a quick review of what Google explained.
- Gemini securely handles users’ private data, such as resume details or personal stuff, without involving any third party.
- Any sensitive Android data, such as audio notes or images, remains stored with the user’s device.
- Data processed in the cloud or on a device remains confined within Google’s secure end-to-end architecture.
Moreover, Google has listed other feature upgrades with Gemini AI to enhance user experience during regular activities, such as emails, data sharing, and more.
According to a recent post from Bleeping Computer, Google has even decided to share insights about the Gemini AI privacy practices via a detailed white paper.
