[Footnote7341]

Everytime I use Gemini, the pro paid version, it ends almost every interaction with "This relates perfectly with <random personal fact it memorized about me> do you want to learn how it connects to that!?"

and it is just annoying and never useful or interesting. Hilariously hamfisted.

I'll be asking about linear programming and it's trying to relate it to my Italian 1 class or my previous career.

Deep in Gemini's setting you can disable its access to conversation history and user memory. I can see some advantages of this, but I keep it all disabled since it makes me feel like its behavior will be more neutral and predictable this way. (also I don't want it to see past conversation history when I keep opening new conversations in an effort to avoid a refusal)
