- Google has introduced Gemini Labs, giving experimental features a clearly labeled home inside the Tools menu.
- A new Personal Intelligence toggle lets you stop Gemini from using connected app data in that chat.
- The update follows previous sightings of Labs behind the scenes and appears to be currently limited to the Gemini web app in select regions.
Google Labs and Search Labs have long been used by Google as a way to give users early access to features that aren’t quite finished. With Gemini evolving so quickly, it always felt like only a matter of time before it got the same treatment. Right on cue, Gemini Labs has finally made an appearance, after we spotted signs of it approaching behind the scenes in recent months.
As 9to5Google spotted, Google has started surfacing a dedicated Labs section inside the Gemini web app, giving experimental features a clearly marked home instead of mixing them in with everything else. The Labs area lives inside Gemini’s Tools menu and is marked with the familiar Google beaker icon. It groups together features that are still actively being developed, such as Agent and Dynamic view, making it clear what’s stable and what’s still a work in progress.
