Google is adding a new Gemini AI feature that will allow users to fine-tune their responses

Google has introduced a new feature for Gemini, its artificial intelligence (AI)-based chatbot. The new feature gives users granular control over the generated prompt response and allows them to make changes to a specific part of the text. Users can regenerate the selected part, edit its length or remove it entirely. The feature is currently only available for the web app version and has not been extended to the app. It should be noted that Google recently announced a slew of new AI features for Android devices.

Declare the new function in a post, Google said, “We’re rolling out a more refined way to tune Gemini responses. Starting in English in the Gemini web app, just select the part of the text you want to change, give Gemini some instructions and get a result that’s closer to what you’re looking for.” The feature is being added to offer more control over users’ creative process by allowing them to make changes to a small part of the answer instead of regenerating it entirely.

Once a prompt response is generated, users can select and highlight any part of the text. Highlighting it will now show a pencil icon in a circle. The Gemini logo also appears next to the pencil. Holding the arrow over the icon brings up the description “Change selected text. Clicking this icon displays four options — Regenerate, Shorter, Longer and Remove.

The options work as the name suggests. Regenerate will change the part of the text and it will be generated again. Shorter and Longer increase or decrease the length of the thread, and Remove deletes it entirely. Additionally, users can also add a prompt for that particular part to modify it.

This is a handy feature. Those who have spent time with AI chatbots know that it often generates a great response that is ruined by a single sentence. Until now, the solution was to regenerate all the content or make modifications to the prompt and repeat endlessly until the desired result appeared. Making granular changes through this feature can potentially save users a lot of time.
