Google Pics is like Canva, but with even more AI

Google has launched a new creative design tool called Google Pics that generates and edits images using AI, built around generative AI models. The tool is designed specifically for business use within Google Workspace, allowing users to select objects or text in images and describe changes they want to make, which aims to produce more consistent professional results than typical AI image generation. Businesses have struggled to create professional-grade images for marketing and presentations because existing AI tools often produce inconsistent results and require repetitive trial-and-error prompting across multiple apps. Google Pics launches as a standalone Workspace app and integrates with Google Docs and Slides, offering features like image generation, object editing, text reformatting, upscaling to 2K or 4K resolution, and collaboration capabilities.
