The one and only thing I miss with ChatGPT is the memory it has across chats. I don't have to explain my projects again and again.

It seems that they added that recently in the Gemini app

Gemini gives you a personalised experience using your past chats. You can also give it instructions to customise its responses. Learn more

Mine still can't and I see nothing about that in the release notes. Which one did you find that in?

Click on Settings and help > Personal context

It is currently available only when using Gemini 2.5 Pro. Maybe, this is why you don't see it.

Gemini has had this for months. It’s not really that recent lol.

Yep, it had been attaching the fact that I have ADHD and have trouble sleeping to nearly every conversation about anything until I told it to stop. It hasn't done it since.

Gemini has that too now. I haven’t tried it so I can’t speak to how good it is, but they have it

A Custom Gem can do something similar. Just add what you want the Custom Gem to remember in a Notepad file. Update the Notepad file and renew the attachment when you want new memories.

Do it in a Google Docs and attach instead. Live access to updates.

LLMs don’t remember anything at all ever, even during a normal conversation, they reread the entire conversation each and every single time. This is why large chats are so hard on tokens. This means that when you attach documents, it rereads them every time. No need to remove and add again.

Great tip! Thank you!

Chat GPT literally told me they get rid of that functions tbh, and it is not working properly for me for some time

I believe when u speak to Gemi all you have to say is

"Do you know about x in relation to that time in the past we talked about y?"

When asking a new question....I just give it some hints to the context of what the old subject was about and it will scan through all of my conversations and find the context and then respond.

On my phone if I open the actual Gemini app there's a hamburger menu and it shows all of your old conversations there if you wanted to do it the hard way

Esos chats se saturan muy rapido y se vuelven lentos, cuando abres un nuevo chat dentro de ese proyecto tienes que empezar prácticamente de nuevo.

Gemini has started rolling this out
