How to Create Google’s New 'Gems'

Similar to ChatGPT's custom GPTs, Gems lets you create custom versions of Gemini. One difference is that Gems allows you to access extensions such as YouTube, Drive, Maps, and more.

1. Click on ‘Gem Manager’ and select ‘New Gem.’

*Note: Only Gemini Advanced users can create Gems for now.

2. Give the new Gem a name and add the instructions. You can use Gemini to help rewrite and expand on your instructions. Just click 'Magic Pencil' at the bottom of the instruction window to rewrite them.

3. Before saving the custom Gem, you can preview the response. The preview window is located right next to the instruction window, where you can enter a prompt to see how your Gem responds.

4. Save your Gem. The "Save" button is located at the top right corner. All your Gems will be available at the left sidebar.

*Note: Enable relevant extensions in settings for the best experience.
