Your Photos, But Dreamier: Gemini’s New AI Editing is So Good, It’s Bananas.

You know that feeling when you find a new app feature and just can’t stop playing with it? Well, get ready. Starting today in the Gemini app, there’s a new image editing model from Google DeepMind that people in early tests have been, well, going completely bananas over. It’s already earned the title of the top-rated image editing model in the world, and now it’s seamlessly integrated right into Gemini, giving you more creative control than ever to craft the perfect picture.

Your Photos, But Dreamier: Gemini’s New AI Editing is So Good, It’s Bananas.

The Magic Trick: Keeping “You” in Every Edit.

We introduced basic image editing in Gemini earlier this year, but our team has been laser-focused on solving a very human problem: keeping a person’s likeness consistent. We all know that uncanny feeling when an edit is almost right, but the face is just a little off—it doesn’t feel like you or someone you love. It feels weird.

That’s why this latest update is a game-changer. It’s specially designed to make photos of your friends, family, and even your furry friends look consistently like themselves. Whether you’re giving yourself a vintage 60’s beehive or picturing your chihuahua in a tiny tutu, the essence of the subject stays true.

Here’s how it works: Just give Gemini a photo and tell it what you want to change. Want to finally get that perfect picture with your elusive cat? Combine your selfie with a photo of your pet. Thinking about new wallpaper? Change your room’s background in a snap. Dreaming of a vacation? Place yourself on a tropical beach or a Parisian street—all while making sure you still look unmistakably like you. And the fun doesn’t stop with a still image; you can even upload your creation back into Gemini and turn your new photo into a fun, shareable video.

Unleash Your Inner Creative Director.

So what can you actually do with this? The possibilities are pretty endless, but here’s a little inspiration to get you started:

The Ultimate Style Test: Upload a photo and try on different outfits, professions, or even time periods. See yourself as a 1920s flapper or a 1980s rock star. The AI ensures you’re still recognizable in every scenario, so it’s all in good fun.
Blend Your World: Got two great photos? Mash them up into one amazing new scene. Upload your photo and one of your dog, and create the perfect portrait of you both shooting hoops on a basketball court.
Edit, Then Edit Again: This is where it gets powerful. Start with an empty room and tell Gemini to paint the walls. Like what you see? Then ask it to add a bookshelf, a cozy armchair, and a coffee table. It’s a collaborative process where you can keep refining, altering specific parts while the rest of the image stays pristine.
Mix and Match Designs: Channel your inner fashion designer. See a gorgeous pattern on a butterfly’s wings? Apply it to a dress. Love the color of some flower petals? Use them to design a unique pair of rainboots. It’s about taking inspiration from one image and applying it to an object in another.

This new, powerful editing capability is available in the Gemini app starting today. And as you explore and create, remember: all images made or edited in Gemini include a visible watermark, plus an invisible SynthID digital watermark, so it’s always clear that your amazing creation is powered by AI.
