REMINDER: Humans can read your Google AI activity
With no time wasted Google has turned on AI by default on all its business products, upping the base price and adding Gemini to things like chats, email, video meets, calendar, sheets, drive storage etc, whether users want it or not. Work users cannot opt out or delete data unless their admins have done it at an organisational level, so do check if the change irks you. Before you ape your work set-up, for personal users Google tucks away in its T&Cs that humans can see anything gobbled up by its AI from your activities for up to three years, and advises "Please don’t enter confidential information in your conversations or any data you wouldn’t want a reviewer to see".
• Here's the Gemini Privacy Policy

• Unimpressed? Here's how to turn it off and delete your data
• Sensitive data? Google doesn't even save its own chats for some reason
