Image editing in Google Photos may soon gain more enhancements<\/a><\/p>\n

The Google Photos image editor has picked up several upgrades over the past year. Specifically, the app introduced a bunch of AI-powered image editing options as part of its 10th anniversary last May. The Google Pixel-exclusive AI Enhance<\/strong> is one such feature introduced last year, which automatically generates three images with a single tap, each with updated framing, lighting, and composition.<\/p>\n

Fresh reporting by Android Authority has revealed that Google may be looking to cut the number of images generated by AI Enhance<\/strong> from three to just one. Furthermore, the Google Photos editor may split the feature into two versions, called AI Enhance<\/strong> I<\/strong> and AI Enhance<\/strong> II<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear whether these are placeholder names for upcoming iterations of AI Enhance<\/strong> or if Google Photos is simply looking to separate some of these tools for more editing control. As the publication suggests, this could also be a way to avoid being spoiled for choice or even an attempt to cut down on compute costs for this generative AI functionality.<\/p>\n

\n Some questions remain unanswered
\n <\/h2>\n

As it stands, there are reportedly no distinctive changes between the results generated by AI Enhance I<\/strong> and AI Enhance II<\/strong>. Additionally, there’s no evidence to show that these split buttons are any faster or better than the current solitary AI Enhance<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n

Google Photos already appears to be testing this updated interface featuring the two buttons, with Telegram user @y7kka among the recipients. Android Authority then managed to activate the buttons on their own by digging into version 7.69.0.890655694<\/strong> of the app. <\/p>\n

While these screenshots show the standard (non-AI) Enhance<\/strong> option, we’re not seeing Dynamic<\/strong> in the carousel. It’s too soon to tell whether this is deliberate on Google’s part or if we’re simply unable to see them from these screenshots.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, we can determine this and more when…<\/p>\n
