Google Pics is like Canva, but with even more AI
Summary
Google has launched a new suite of creative design tools for Workspace users called Google Pics, aiming to make editing and generating 'professional-grade' AI images less cumbersome for businesses. Built around Gemini and the Nano Banana generative AI model, it offers more granular control over prompt-based image making and manipulation, allowing users to tap on specific objects or text and describe what they want to change, potentially avoiding the ugly results that chatbots often produce for marketing imagery.
