It also seemed to be able to regurgitate accurate information related to unreleased mechanics that the developer says they had only written into GDocs the day before the player’s AI interaction.
Is training down daily now? I thought it was still a huge process, hence new models coming out like once a year or so.
It’s quite possible that permission was accidentally given somewhere in Google’s platform when it was begging them to allow Gemini access “to improve your Google experience”.
A phone pop-up, a notification in Gmail, Google Home, you name it, there’s plenty of places in the Google ecosystem to put a prompt in that’s worded in just the right way so that you think you’re sharing a slice and Google’s taking the whole pie.

Exactly.
This is basically complete confirmation that the source of the data was NOT via ‘training’ because training is not that fast.
Now, I’m not saying Google don’t train their AI on gdocs. It wouldn’t surprise me at all.
But in this specific case, training cannot be where that information came from. There must be some other route of context-based access to the info.
Maybe Gemini is allowed to search private GDocs content?
What if it was just guessing? That’s a low probability, but it would be creepy.
Seems more likely the Dev has accidentally set sharing permissions on their GDocs or Google Drive that allowed it to be indexed.
