Key points

  • Google provides options for users to control AI access through privacy settings.
  • Administrators can also manage these settings for enterprise accounts.
  • Disabling AI features may affect personalized services but does not remove all data.

Explanation

According to the official Google support documentation, users have the ability to adjust their privacy settings to limit how much of their Gmail and chat information is used by Google's AI systems. For personal accounts, this can be done through the 'Privacy' section in the Google Account settings. Enterprises can manage these settings via the Google Workspace Admin console, which allows administrators to control data access for all users within an organization.
