Google Photos gets new AI features for its 10-year anniversary
Google Photos is 10 years old. To honor the anniversary, the company revamped the app's editor. Naturally, AI plays a leading role.
The redesigned Photos adds AI-powered editors previously exclusive to the Pixel 9's Magic Editor. That includes Auto Frame, which suggests crops for your pics. If that requires new parts, it will use AI to generate them.
Also moving over from the Pixel is Reimagine. That's where you can add elements like fall leaves or green grass that weren't there. It can be equal parts neat and unsettling. We described it as "blurring the line between which of your memories are real and which are not." The results are convincing enough that Google recently began watermarking them as AI-generated.

The Google Photos update also adds a new AI Enhance feature. As The Verge notes, selecting it produces three edits. (It generates them with existing tweaks like sharpening and object removal.) Then, you pick the result you like best. The new AI Enhance feature sits in the Edit menu, alongside the app's existing Enhance and Dynamic buttons.
Google also made it easier to share albums. You can now generate a QR code linking to your album. Let a friend scan it directly, or print it out in a group setting.
The redesigned editor arrives on Android devices in June. Google says the iOS version will follow "later this year."This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/google-photos-gets-new-ai-features-for-its-10-year-anniversary-185523431.html?src=rss
