The new feature keeps Gemini ahead of Anthropic, which released its own chat memory function a couple of days ago for its Claude chatbot. Claude’s new memory works the way Gemini’s used to, where you have to specifically ask Claude to reference old chats and apply that knowledge to new conversations.

The latest Gemini features will allow the chatbot to easily recall past conversations, while also creating temporary, disappearing chats.

Gemini AI now remembers chat details with Personal Context and offers Temporary Chat and Keep Activity for enhanced user privacy.
