Outlining the new features in a Wednesday (April 29) blog post, the company said Google TV users can turn ideas into images by visiting the Gemini tab and selecting “Create” to access Nano Banana; generate custom videos from scratch or from an existing image by visiting the Gemini tab and selecting “Create” to access Veo; and search Google Photos with their voice with the help of Gemini.

In addition, Google TV users can change their photos to look like a watercolor or oil painting by using Google Photos Remix; turn their Google Photos album into a dynamic slideshow by visiting the screensaver settings under “Quick Settings”; and watch a personalized feed of short videos by accessing a new “Short videos for you” row on the Home page.

The availability of these features will vary by device, country and language, according to the post.

“Whether you’re bringing hilarious ideas to life, reliving your favorite moments from your Google Photos library or kicking back to watch snackable clips on the big screen, these updates are designed to help you connect, create and share laughs together,” Michael DelGaudio, UX manager and design lead at Google TV, and Gaurav Chaula, product manager at Google TV, said in the post.

In another recent move, Google said April 21 that it embedded two new AI features into Chrome, putting Gemini inside the purchase journey before shoppers reach a buying decision. Skills for Gemini lets users save AI prompts and replay them on any webpage with a single click, while an update to AI Mode in Chrome means clicking a search result now opens a merchant’s page in a side panel alongside an active Gemini session.

On April 8, Google said the new AI-powered Google Finance was set to expand beyond the United States and India, adding more than 100 countries over the following weeks. The new Google Finance offers AI-powered research that answers questions and provides links for additional information, new charting tools, a revamped news feed, and expanded data for commodities and cryptocurrencies.
