There is a setting on Gemini paid, however it isn't about disabling model training, only activity storage length. Also (On manual deletion): "Even when Gemini Apps Activity is off, your conversations will be saved with your account for up to 72 hours to allow Google to provide the service and process any feedback." And in any case: "Conversations that have been reviewed or annotated by human reviewers (and related data like your language, device type, location info, or feedback) are not deleted when you delete your Gemini Apps activity because they are kept separately and are not connected to your Google Account. Instead, they are retained for up to three years."

  I’m guessing this is more for abuse prevention and regulatory compliance. Google being in the news yet again for some misuse of their AI and journalists spinning that off as Google’s embodiment of values is the last thing that they want or need at this point.

    There's still no indication that it disables model training. The setting is explicitly about the activity history (which is 3-mo auto-delete, 72h minimum).

      https://support.google.com/gemini?p=activity_off_retention https://support.google.com/gemini?p=activity_off_retention "Who has access to my Gemini Apps conversations? How you can control what’s shared with reviewers If you turn off Gemini Apps Activity, future conversations won’t be sent for human review or used to improve our generative machine-learning models." The way I interpret the policy is that if Gemini Apps Activity is off: 1. Conversations after activity is turned off that are linked to your account are retained for up to 72 hours for "safety and security", but are not sent to human reviewers or used for model training. 2. In the event that you submit feedback (eg good/bad response), then the conversation (disassociated from your account) can be used for training. This is also flagged when attempting to submit feedback: "Even when Gemini Apps activity is off, feedback submitted will also include up to the last 24 hours of your conversations to help improve Gemini."
