Gemini is my default AI assistant on my smartphone, computer, and every device that I use. I use it occasionally to ask for something, get inspired, or create/edit images and videos, and that’s about it. Until now, this whole relationship was something like I had a really smart assistant who just sat in the corner of the room and waited to be called on. Things changed when one day I genuinely needed help with my research for an article I found interesting, but had zero time to read, and had to reply to three WhatsApp messages while working.
And instead of using Gemini in the standard way, I used it the way it was probably meant to be used. The best part was that there was a fix hiding right inside the app, which I had overlooked. If you are still using Gemini like a fancy chatbot on your phone, then you are missing out on something very interesting.
