Google Photos AI-base Magic Editor tool brings Photoshop-like editing features – Times of India
Expanding AI capabilities to its apps and services, Google has announced Generative AI is coming to several Google products including Photos. Based on that, the company has announced a new ‘Magic Editor’ tool that will be coming to Android’s native gallery app later this year.
Announcing the Magic Editor tool, CEO Sundar Pichai showcased two real-world examples of what the new generative AI-based tool can do. The Magic Editor tool, as per the example showcased, allows users to make complex edits in photos in a professional way without requiring a dedicated photos editing tool or even knowledge of using them. The feature builds upon existing Magic Eraser and Photo Unblur features and allows users to edit the sky, subject and more.

In the keynote, Sundar Pichai highlighted a couple of features that users can do using the Magic Eraser tool. Here’s a list:
- Allows users to reposition the subject in an image for a better positioning
- Relocate and scale the subject
- Adjust sky brightness and tune it as per their liking and make it match the rest of the photo
- Edit unwanted things like a bag strap from the image
The Magic Editor demo video demonstrated that users can simply hold down on the subject with Magic Editor and move the subject and reposition them automatically. The tool will also “create new content to fill in the gaps after repositioning the subject”.
Showcasing this, Pichai showcased a video where a kid was sitting at a bench with balloons in hand which were getting cut from the corner along with a nice building in the background. After using the Magic Editor to adjust the position, the tool automatically recreated the balloons in exact same colour to match the original.
The feature will first arrive in early access to select Pixel phones later this year. It isn’t clear if Google will make this available for other users as well.
