The thing you're asking it to do is to maintain the state of the document in a service. This way it's able to display the state of the document to one or more clients.
Arguably running through AI is even a more privacy-preserving feature, because Google Docs most certainly stores the data to a persistent storage (it is its main feature and cannot work without it), whereas AIs just needs to run the data in RAM.
- manuelmoreale 2y agoJust so we're clear, I'm personally not using G Docs nor Gemini nor any other AI tool at the moment. My issue—if you can call it that way—is more fundamental and that is related to intentions. I think using some data for something that's fundamentally different than its original use case is problematic in my view.
