While new AI tools are grabbing headlines with their innovative features, Google’s own creation,Gemini,wasn’t exactly stealing the show. Users faced issues with its quirky responses andless-than-stellar coding abilities, making it tough to get accurate information or have a smooth conversation. The good news is that Google has updated Gemini to give users an easier way to tune its responses.
Google Gemini’supdate pagestates that users will be able to fine-tune the chatbot’s responses to match their queries exactly. However, it’s currently only available in English and works exclusively on the web version of Gemini.
This comes in handy because now you don’t need to request Gemini to redo the entire text. Simply highlight the part you want to change for a quick modification. To make adjustments to Gemini’s response, just open it in yourfavorite web browser.
How to fine-tune Gemini’s response
When you ask the chatbot to generate something, simply highlight the part of the response you want to tweak and click on the small bubble with a pen icon. You’ll see four options:Regenerate,Shorter,Longer, andRemove. Opt for “Regenerate” to rewrite the selected text, “Shorter” and “Longer” to condense or expand it, and “Remove” to delete the chosen text.
If you prefer, you can also instruct Gemini to redo its response by typing your desired changes in theModify with a promptfield. Keep in mind that if your prompts don’t guide the chatbot on how to modify the response or request unsupported text formatting changes, you might get a “Gemini couldn’t do that” reply, as noted by9to5Google. Also, the AI might hit a roadblock if your queries are unclear or violate Google’s Prohibited Use Policy.
Google might be putting some limits on users tweaking text responses from extensions, those with code blocks, and selections that involve images, as per 9to5.

Is Google’s new AI app ready for the big time?
The latest update comes a few days after Googlehit the pause button on Gemini’s image generation. This move came after the AI raised eyebrows by creating historically inaccurate or offensive images. Gemini is set to make a comeback in the next few weeks, with some adjustments to tackle those concerns.
Gemini’s recent mishaps have sparked renewed conversations about AI ethics, especially within Google’s AI framework. The incidents bring up concerns about the accuracy of AI-generated output and the potential for AI hallucinations. While companies like Google are racing to lead the AI assistant competition, the haste might result in products with flaws that could overshadow their efforts.
