Google Workspace Changes

Users can now share custom Gems created in the Gemini app, with admin controls for sharing settings.

This launch introduces the ability to share Gems, which are customizable versions of Gemini that users can personalize to be experts on any topic. Once shared, other users can edit, use, or make a copy of the Gem. Gems sharing is powered by the same technology as Google Drive, offering a familiar interface. Admins can control Gem sharing using a new Admin console setting under Generative AI > Gemini app > Gems, with the feature being ON by default.

Quizzes in the Gemini app are now available to under-18 users.

This update expands the availability of the quiz generation feature in the Gemini app to users under 18 years of age. Previously, users could create quizzes using Canvas in the Gemini app by uploading documents or providing prompts. With this change, students can now create their own quizzes to prepare for exams, and educators can create and share quizzes with their classes. There are no admin controls for Canvas, and the feature is on by default for end users.
