Google Photos Is Getting a Gemini Infusion to Power Its Search

This update works in two separate parts. First, Google is upgrading the existing search with better natural language processing to understand more descriptive queries. You won't have to use specific keywords anymore. Some examples Google provided include “Alice and me laughing” and “Kayaking on a lake surrounded by mountains.” Some of this will require you to take advantage of certain Google Photos features, like identifying yourself and people in your photos so the system understands who “Alice” is. These results can be sorted by date or relevance.
