Google is integrating generative AI tools into its consumer applications to compete with rivals and enhance user experience. The new Video Remix feature in Google Photos leverages Gemini Omni for quick video editing.
Google Photos is getting a new “Video Remix” feature that can edit and transform videos in seconds, Google announced on Wednesday. The feature is powered by Gemini Omni, Google’s recently released model that promises to “create anything from any input.”
The launch is Google’s latest push to bring more generative AI tools into its consumer apps as it continues to compete with companies like Apple, OpenAI, and Adobe. By baking AI-powered video editing into Google Photos, the tech giant is making it easier for users to edit clips with a few taps instead of relying on dedicated software, giving users another reason to stay within Google’s ecosystem.
The Video Remix tool can be accessed in the “Create” tab in Google Photos, allowing you to do things like apply cinematic relighting to brighten up a dark clip, swap out a plain background for something else, or add artistic styles to videos, such as watercolor, raw sketchbook, and oil painting effects.
For example, you could edit a video to make it appear that you shot it in a greenhouse, relight a video with a morning glow, or paint a video in a watercolor effect.
“Creating beautiful video clips shouldn’t require professional skills or hours of editing,” Google wrote in a blog post. “Now, with Video Remix in Google Photos, you can transform ordinary videos into share-worthy moments in just a few taps.”
Video Remix starts rolling out today to eligible Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers in the U.S., Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, and Turkey.
