​Your Google Photos library could soon influence the kind of images you can generate with Gemini. After letting users personalize the AI assistant’s responses with data from Gmail, Search and YouTube, Google says it’s bringing that same “Personal Intelligence” to Nano Banana 2 to make it easier for users to create personalized images with the AI model.The goal is to have the data affiliated with your Google account — your YouTube history, emails, Google Photos, etc. — provide context to Nano Banana 2 so you don’t have to. Rather than prompting Gemini’s image generation model with information about you or photos of your belongings, a direction to “create a picture of my desert island essentials” should produce an image that includes the things you care about without any extra context. Similarly, if you use labels in Google Photos to identify people or pets, you can tell Gemini to “create a hand-drawn illustration of mom,” and it should be able to use Google Photo’s labels to find the right reference photo and create an image of the right person.GoogleIf Gemini creates images that don’t look right, you can still send a follow-up prompt to refine the result, or select a new source image from Google Photos with the “+” button. Google says you can also click the “Sources” button to view what images the AI referenced in the first place, or ask it directly for the attribution and sources used for a specific image.Personalized user data is one of the unique advantages Google has over companies offering competing AI assistants, so expanding Personal Intelligence to an already popular feature like image generation is a natural way to build on that lead. For now, this more personalized version of Nano Banana 2 is available in the Gemini app for eligible AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers. Google says the feature will come to Gemini in Chrome and other users “soon.”This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/gemini-can-now-draw-on-your-google-data-to-personalize-the-images-it-generates-160000269.html?src=rss
