If you want to ask Google’s AI chatbot, Gemini, a question about an impending election, you will need to choose a nation where no elections are happening. The search engine behemoth has begun to limit Gemini searches related to elections in any area worldwide.

Recently, Gemini was restricted to decrease the amount of information that surfaced worldwide in response to questions concerning elections. The upgrade has already gone live in the United States and is starting to roll out in all major nations hosting elections in the next months, including India.

Inquiries about political parties, candidates, or politicians now get a pre-programmed response. Gemini displays a message that reads, “I’m still learning how to answer this question,” responding to inquiries about specific political parties or candidates. In the meantime, look up Google Search. Occasionally, one can still manipulate the tool.

It’s uncertain whether Google will allow Gemini to answer election-related questions again after the elections conclude later this year. As we find out more, we’ll update this piece with a comprehensive list of the nations where the update is now available.
