Google Photos adds new AI features for editing, expands AI-powered search to over 100 countries | TechCrunch
"Google Photos has rolled out a series of new AI-powered features, including a way to edit objects and people in images, a new Ask button for AI-powered answers about the photo or edit requests, AI templates to create new photos, and the expansion of natural language search. The company first introduced prompt-based editing for Pixel 10 series phones in August. Now, iOS users in the U.S. can describe their edits using voice or text to modify images, Google announced Tuesday."
"The upgrade includes a new personalized edits feature that recognizes people from Google Photos' face groups. Users can find the "Help me edit" option and type several instructions applicable to people within the photo. For instance, "Remove Riley's sunglasses, open my eyes, make Engel smile, and open her eyes" to get edits related to each person, as the image below shows."
"The company is adding its popular AI image model, Nano Banana, to Google Photos to let users edit their photos to recreate images in new styles like a Renaissance portrait or cartoon strip. Google is also adding AI templates to easily let users convert one photo into a specific format. With Nano Banana, formats like turning images into retro portraits or action figures became popular."

The Nano Banana image model enables style transfers to recreate photos as Renaissance portraits, cartoons, retro portraits, or action figures. AI templates convert one photo into specific formats. An Ask button offers information, related moments, and edit prompts on iOS and Android.
