Do you use Google Photos? Then its latest blog post, 6 new things you can do with AI in Google Photos, is well worth a read. There are some eye-catching new features in there, and two new abilities have grabbed all the headlines. First, you can now edit your images by text prompt alone, and second, you also have the option to transform them using the generative AI smarts of Nano Banana. But here's something else buried here that a lot of people seem to have missed.
Number 4 on Google's list is a new feature called personalised templates. Rolling out over the next few weeks in the USA, these promise to "use insights about you from your photo gallery to create edits unique to your hobbies and experiences". This means you'll be able to ask Google to do things like "create a name doodle personalized to me" or "create a cartoon of me and my hobbies".
