Google Photos is adding a new "Create tab," a hub for new AI tools. Features include "Photo to video" (powered by Veo 2) to animate your static images and "Remix" to transform pictures into fun art styles.
Google Photos is celebrating its tenth anniversary, and I've been a user since day one. Over the past decade, I've switched phones many times, from Nexus (now Pixel) to iPhone, and through it all, Google Photos has been the one constant, cross-platform home for all of my memories. It's truly been a life-changing product.
Now, with AI, it's starting to make those memories even more vivid. They're introducing a new "Create tab" that brings some fun new features. "Photo to video" can take a static picture and bring it to life with subtle movements, and "Remix" can transform your photos into different art styles like sketches or comics.
It's exciting to see a tool that has been so central to preserving our past now using AI to help us creatively reimagine it.
• Does AI reference specific artists/movements? (e.g., ‘Van Gogh swirls’)
• Can it handle complex textures? (fur/water reflections)
• What’s the max resolution before quality loss?
Bonus Q: Will creators get attribution/royalties if styles mimic living artists? 🎨
I use Google so much it’s basically muscle memory at this point. Half the time I don’t even realize I’m typing something into the search bar until I’ve already hit enter.
Congrats! Is it like the live pictures on iPhone or a longer video generation?
