From PC World: Google Photos had been experimenting with AI searches for the best part of a year before the AI-powered beta was rolled back earlier this month. Now, Google is ready for more people to get access.
The feature is called Ask Photos, originally revealed at Google I/O 2024, and it allows for more intuitive searches. Google’s own examples of searches that work include "suggest photos that'd make great phone backgrounds" or "what did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?"
The app will then use Google Gemini models to help it figure out what you're looking for. For that second query, it will find the location of your photos, find images of food logged in Barcelona, and then present them all at once. Normally, you’d have to search for the word Barcelona, or the dates of your travel, and then you'd get everything from the trip rather than just photos of food.
