What is Google Gem?

Google Gems are custom AI chatbots that you can create on the Gemini platform. These chatbots can be customized to serve as experts in various fields like fitness, cooking, writing, and coding. By giving your Gem specific instructions and a name, you can create an AI assistant that fits your unique needs.

Key Features of Google Gems

• Customization: You can design Gems by writing detailed instructions that define what they do and how they behave. This means you can have a Gem that acts as a personal trainer, a writing coach, or even a coding assistant.
• Pre-Made Gems: Google offers several pre-made Gems if you don’t want to start from scratch. These include a learning coach, a brainstormer, a career guide, a writing editor, and a coding partner, each ready to help with specific tasks.
• Wide Availability: Gems are available to users of the Gemini Advanced, Business, and Enterprise tiers in over 150 countries and more than 30 languages.
• Google Workspace Access: It has access to data that you store in Google Workspace such as Gmail, Docs, Drive, etc.

How to Use Google Gems

Open https://gemini.google.com/ and sign up for an account if you havne’t yet.

Custom Gem is available only with Gemini Advanced. It means you need to buy a subscription in order to use it. However, if you haven’t tried Gemini, you can get a Free 1-month Trial.

After logging in, go to the left sidebar and select “Gem Manager” from the menu.

To create a new Gem, click on the “New Gem” button under premade Gems.

Then, you need to provide the Gem name and instructions.

Google has recommended how to write the best instructions.

You can find some examples here https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/15235603

But don’t worry, you don’t have to write it yourself if you don’t want to. Gemini provides a helpful function for rewriting simple instructions into better and more complex ones. You only need to write the simple instructions and then click ‘Magic Pencil’ at the bottom of the instruction window to rewrite it.

The instructions could be approximately 73 pages long, contain about ~18,000 words, or include ~100,000 charts.

If that’s not enough, you can attach a document before submitting a prompt to your Gem.

Before you save the custom Gem you can preview the response. The preview window is located right beside the instruction window.

Once you are happy with the result, you can save your Gem. The “Save” button is located at the top right corner.

All your Gems will be available at the left sidebar.

Integration with Google Workspace

To integrate your Gem with Gmail, Google Docs or Google Drive you need to turn on Google Workspace extension in the settings.

Then, inside your Gem, you can reference it using the ‘@’ symbol.

Conclusion

Google Gem is a big leap forward in AI personalization. This feature enhances the Gemini platform and strengthens Google’s position in the AI world, competing with other offerings like OpenAI’s GPT Store.

Will it replace custom GPTs from OpenAI? I don’t think so, but it has good use cases, especially for those who work in Google environments.
