Turn off Gemini in Google!
It's been turned on by default.

Go to your Drive, click the gear icon, click settings, go to "manage apps" and uncheck that nasty "use by default" box.

Very cool resource created by Keras Saryan today to augment @quothalinguist.bsky.social's #GramBank #conlang resource. If you upload your GramBank spreadsheet to this site it will compare it to natlangs in the GramBank database to gauge their similarity!
