Little by little, the benefits offered by the generative Artificial Intelligence models are reaching the majority of users without having to go through professional applications.
Google, in its event for developers this year, has offered a preview of it for its Photos application through two examples of the new function called Magic Editor, although yes, we will still have to wait to have it in our hands
Generative AI also makes its way into Google Photos
The truth is that with generative AI-based features built into Google Photos, the Google Photos app will be able to get quite an edge over other photo management apps.
It is also true that the Google Photos application has long ceased to be an application to manage photos, becoming a kind of suite of photo-oriented tools, although it will still have to go a little further to earn the suite qualifier.
Complex manual jobs done in seconds by AI
What Google showed of Magic Editor in Google Photos gives an idea that what used to take hours now takes seconds, with the AI ​​taking charge of regenerating parts of the images, although it will not always be perfect.
On the one hand, it showed how the AI ​​is capable of moving a person in a photo with a waterfall in the background, and on the other hand, the slight change of place of a bench with a seated child holding some balloons. In both cases, the AI ​​has also been in charge of improving the light conditions captured in the photos.
To which we have dedicated hours in Adobe Photoshop, previously we had to make cutouts of people, something not always easy, to place them in another location in the photo, and then regenerate the environment based on clones with the elements that we had in the same images, although we could also resort to others as long as we did not alter the reality of the space.
Now it is Google who is dedicated to magically making the cuts to move people and regenerate the background parts to be covered, all in a matter of seconds, even if later you have to manually improve those imperfections that the regeneration of elements has left.
We will have to wait a few months to start having the new tool
Google says that Magic Editor will be coming to Google Photos later this year, and will start offering it as early access to select Pixel mobile users, and may be included in new models that presumably arrive this fall.
