Google is expanding its Ask Photos feature, which is an AI-powered search feature inside Google Photos. The feature is now available to more users in the US. The tool, previously available via early access, is backed by Gemini models to allow users to ask complex, natural language queries about their photo library, for example, “What did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?” or “Show me pictures that would look good as phone wallpapers.”
Based on early feedback, Google says it’s improving the speed and relevance of results, especially for simple queries like “dogs” or “beach.” The latest update merges classic Google Photos search capabilities with the generative power of Gemini. It is said to deliver quicker responses for basic queries while still refining deeper results in the background for more nuanced questions.
