The personal AI assistant is similar to ChatGPT’s tool of the same name, and since launching in December has proven to be one of the best AI agents on the market.
Everyone should give Gemini’s Deep Research a go
We’ve thoroughly tested Deep Research since it launched a few months ago and it has been seriously impressive to see the evolution in AI models capable of doing research without human supervision. Gemini’s Deep Research has impressed thanks to its ease of use and is great at casual queries like buying guide advice such as “Find me the best affordable running shoes that aren’t ugly, and explain why they’re good.”
ChatGPT’s Deep Research is currently only available to Plus subscribers who pay $20 a month, so Google now offering Gemini’s version for free is a huge win for the tech giant. You really don’t have anything to lose, give Gemini Deep Research a try and see what the fuss is about, after all it’s now completely free.
The upgrade to Deep Research isn’t the only new addition coming to Gemini today, Google has also announced that the AI chatbot will now have access to your Search history should you choose to share it. All of these new features are rolling out from today, so keep an eye out on your Gemini client and take advantage of all the newly announced features.
