I’ve been using google search AI and Gemini, which I find generally pretty good. In the past week, Gemini and Search AI have been bringing in various details of previous searches I’ve done and Search AI conversations I’ve had and it’s extremely gross and creepy.

I was looking for details about cars and it started interjecting how the safety would affect my children by name in a conversation where I never mention my children. I was asking details about Thunderbolt and modern Ryzen processors and a fresh Gemini chat brought in details about a completely unrelated project I work on. I’ve always thought local LLMs would be important, but whatever Google did in the past few weeks has made that even more clear.

It's Personal Intelligence in the Gemini settings. I just turned that off last night when it was doing similar things.
