Gemini in Gmail tries to infer a trouser size from two years of order history
zats · x · 2026-07-26
A side-by-side screenshot shows Gemini inside Gmail trying to help with a very specific shopping task: finding a trouser size based on recent orders.
- The assistant searches Gmail for order history and only finds partial clues.
- It concludes that the only clearly confirmed trouser size is W29/L30.
- The result is funny because the model is doing serious retrieval work for an absurdly mundane request.
