Thanks to the artificial intelligence Google Photos, the app that many of us use to archive your memories in Cloud, allows you to give life to the shots with Veo 3, the new Google video generation model, through a specific Create Card inside the app. Thanks to the latter, the photos from static move to a fluid animation state, returning to the user the feeling that time continues to scroll even beyond the moment of the shot. The function is already in distribution in the United States and is accessible to everyone, including those who have a free Google account. At the moment it is not possible to test it in Europe.
The news AI of Google Photos that animates the images with Veo 3
The entertainment of its memories on Google Photo passes through the Create of the app, which allows you to combine different tools: from the Remix function, which re-elaborates the style of a photo by applying effects of various kinds, up to photo to video, which converts it into an animated mini-sequence. The logic is simple: to make available in a single space a series of functions based on generative artificial intelligence and make them intuitive for anyone.
The most interesting novelty, at least in our opinion, concerns above all two ways relating to the “Photo to video” function. The first is called delicate movements: through this, the algorithm applies light and almost imperceptible animations, such as the wind that moves a tree or a smile that softens. With I feel lucky, however, the AI integrated in Google Photos can act more massively on the contents by applying more creative effects: just to give some examples, it is possible to make the subjects dance and generate rains of confetti. Each animation lasts about four seconds and does not include audio.
