Google Gemini AI tool now available

Google Gemini, a suite of generative AI tools, is now available to all Swarthmore students and employees. As we continue to explore the potential of artificial intelligence, Gemini offers a secure platform for experimentation.

Gemini is available via a web chatbot at gemini.google.com and mobile applications for iOS and Android devices. Sign in with your Swarthmore Google account.

Data Privacy

A critical aspect of this rollout is ensuring the privacy and security of data. When you access Gemini using your Swarthmore Google account, your conversations and any data you provide are not used to train Google’s AI models. If you choose to use Gemini with a personal Google account, your data may be used for training purposes.

Potential Uses

AI tools such as Gemini can be used for

  • Brainstorming
  • Summarizing documents
  • Researching new topics

As with any AI tool, there can be errors and content generated with the assistance of AI should always be manually checked for accuracy and bias.
