iPhone users will be able to use Google's free AI photo editing tool

The company said that starting May 15, it will expand access to AI image editing features that are only available on Pixel phones and the Google One cloud storage subscription service.

Google's image AI features currently include: Magic Eraser - a tool to remove objects from photos, Photo Unblur - which sharpens images that are out of focus (also known as out-of-focus or out-of-focus) and Portrait Light - rebalance the frame lighting.

These tools will appear on many other devices, including Pixel tablets, Chromebook Plus computers (requires ChromeOS 118 or higher and at least 3GB of RAM), and smartphones including iPhones and Android phones. . For mobile devices, Android 8.0 and iOS 15 versions or higher are required.

The Magic Editor feature will also be expanded to all Pixel devices. All Google Photos users on Android and iOS will be able to save 10 photos edited with this tool each month. However, Pixel users and Google One subscribers who pay for 2TB of storage will get unlimited use of the AI ​​feature.

Also in May, another technology giant, Microsoft, plans to announce AI tools for use on PCs and the cloud at its annual developers conference.

Previously, CEO Satya Nadella affirmed in January that 'AI will become the pinnacle part on every PC'. Last month, Mustafa Suleyman - a famous expert in the field of AI - joined the Windows manufacturer.

According to the roadmap, Microsoft introduced Surface PC models using Intel chips with a Copilot activation button last March. This year, the company will launch Surface versions using Arm architecture chips designed to prioritize AI tasks.
