As a keen user of Google’s Gemini Live feature or AI chatbot, you might have encountered a frustrating issue: Occasionally, for no apparent reason, Google automatically removes your Gemini chat history. For those who only use the service sporadically, there isn’t much content at risk of being lost. We’ve received reports of Gemini erasing up to four days’ worth of AI-generated dialogues, which could have more significant implications for users relying on the chatbot for extensive projects. Additionally, we’ve reported instances of Gemini not retaining essential information, while the actual bot dialogue remains intact.
This phenomenon of automatic deletion doesn’t appear to be impacting every Google Gemini user, but the likelihood of it occurring is currently about 50/50 for anyone. This can be a significant deal-breaker for any AI chatbot, particularly for users trying to leverage the Gemini platform as an alternative to Google Assistant or for detailed research or business tasks. Fortunately, you can count on a few backup solutions, such as Google Drive and Google’s AI Studio, to help you maintain important AI conversations.
