Beginning next week, Google Photos is set to introduce a new feature that will disclose when photos have been edited using AI-powered tools such as Magic Editor, Magic Eraser, and Zoom Enhance. This information will be accessible in the “Details” section associated with each photo. Despite this effort to enhance transparency, the disclosure may not be immediately noticeable to many users, as it does not include any visual watermarks on the photo itself to signify the use of AI editing. Additionally, the impact of this new feature might be minimal, as most users typically do not explore the metadata or visit the details tab where this information is provided.
