Google is set to revolutionize personalized AI with its new Gems feature, allowing Gemini subscribers to create bespoke chatbots tailored to their needs. Starting this fall, users can craft chatbots — or “Gems” — to serve as gym buddies, cooking assistants, copy editors, and more. These Gems can be customized with unique personalities and functions based on user instructions.
Revealed initially at Google I/O in May, Gems promise a broad range of applications, from planning drought-resistant gardens to acting as a friendly training coach. For those not keen on designing their own, Google offers a selection of pre-made Gems, including a career guide and a coding partner.
Available for Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise users across over 150 countries, Gems will support both mobile and desktop platforms. This move positions Google to compete directly with OpenAI, which has recently emphasized user-created chatbots and a GPT store.
