Gmail and Gemini AI Controversy Explained: Is Google Training on Your Emails?
Google denied claims that Gmail content is used to train its Gemini AI, calling recent reports “misleading.” The controversy began after Malwarebytes published, then corrected, a viral post suggesting users were auto-opted in. Google says Gmail scans emails for features like spam filtering, not for AI model training. Malwarebytes now agrees, but warns users can disable these features if concerned.
