Overview
- Google announced Thursday that Gemini’s Personal Intelligence, which links data from Google apps, can connect to Google Photos to guide Nano Banana 2 in making personalized images.
- The feature is rolling out over the next few days to paid AI Pro, Plus, and Ultra subscribers in the U.S., with support for Chrome on desktop and more regions planned next.
- A new Sources button shows which photo Gemini used as a reference, and a plus icon lets you swap in a different image if it picked the wrong one.
- Google says the connection is optional, private Photos do not train its underlying models, and users can remove access at any time in settings.
- Gemini leans on user-applied labels in Photos and signals like YouTube or Search history to infer people and preferences so brief prompts can produce tailored images without extra uploads.
