Create tab in Google Photos - Bring your memories to life

Hi everyone!

Google Photos is celebrating its tenth anniversary, and I've been a user since day one. Over the past decade, I've switched phones many times, from Nexus (now Pixel) to iPhone, and through it all, Google Photos has been the one constant, cross-platform home for all of my memories. It's truly been a life-changing product.

Now, with AI, it's starting to make those memories even more vivid. They're introducing a new "Create tab" that brings some fun new features. "Photo to video" can take a static picture and bring it to life with subtle movements, and "Remix" can transform your photos into different art styles like sketches or comics.

It's exciting to see a tool that has been so central to preserving our past now using AI to help us creatively reimagine it.

Congrats! Is it like the live pictures on iPhone or a longer video generation?

When will this feature reach the UK?

Remix art styles = 🔥! But technically:

• Does AI reference specific artists/movements? (e.g., ‘Van Gogh swirls’)

• Can it handle complex textures? (fur/water reflections)

• What’s the max resolution before quality loss?

Bonus Q: Will creators get attribution/royalties if styles mimic living artists? 🎨

Wild update. Can't wait!

I’d rather they develop better download and delete tools for Google Photos. If they have already done so I am out of the loop.
