After Anthropic updated its tool for copying another AI’s memory into Claude earlier this month, Google Gemini is rolling out new “Import Memory” and “Import Chat History” features on desktop that can help users quickly copy over everything their current AI already knows about them. To use the “Import Memory” tool, users copy and paste a suggested prompt from Gemini into their previous AI, then paste the output from the previous AI into Gemini, which should get Gemini caught up on their preferences.
The “Import Chat History” feature has users request an export of all of their chats from their previous AI, which they upload to Gemini in the form of a .zip file of up to 5GB. Then users can pick up those chats in Gemini from wherever they left off with their previous AI. You can also delete specific imported chat histories from the Chat option in the left-hand menu, or entire .zip file imports where they’re listed under settings.
Google announced that it’s also renaming “past chats” in Gemini to “memory.” Import Memory and Import Chat History are rolling out to free and paid consumer Gemini accounts on desktop. The new features are also currently not available to users with business, enterprise, or under-18 accounts.
