A leaked ad for the upcoming Google Pixel 8 series has revealed several new AI features that are coming to the phones. The ad, which was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a user, highlights the following AI features:
Best Take
The Best Take feature is a major new feature for the Pixel 8 series. It uses AI to combine multiple photos into a single, perfect shot. This can be useful in a variety of situations, such as when you are taking a group photo or when you are trying to capture a moving subject.
To use Best Take, simply take multiple photos of the same scene. The Pixel 8 will then use AI to select the best parts of each photo and combine them into a single image. This can help to remove unwanted objects, fix blurry faces, and improve lighting.
Magic Eraser
The Magic Eraser feature is another new AI feature that is coming to the Pixel 8 series. It uses AI to remove unwanted objects from photos. This can be useful for removing distractions from your photos or for fixing mistakes.
To use Magic Eraser, simply select the object that you want to remove from your photo and the Pixel 8 will do the rest. The AI will seamlessly blend in the surrounding pixels to create a natural-looking image.
Real Tone
The Real Tone feature is a new AI feature that is designed to ensure that skin tones are accurately represented in photos. This can be useful for people of all skin tones, but it is especially useful for people of color.
To use Real Tone, simply enable the feature in the Pixel 8 camera app. The AI will then automatically adjust the skin tones in your photos to ensure that they are accurately represented.
Other AI features
In addition to the new AI features mentioned above, the Pixel 8 series will also come with a number of other AI-powered features, such as Live Translate, Photo Unblur, and Night Sight.
Live Translate allows you to translate text in real time using the Pixel 8’s camera. This can be useful for translating signs, menus, and other text that you encounter in your travels.
Photo Unblur can be used to sharpen blurry photos. This can be useful for fixing photos that were taken out of focus or for photos that were taken in low-light conditions.
Night Sight allows you to take clear photos in low-light conditions without using a flash. This can be useful for taking photos at night or in dimly lit rooms.
Overall, the leaked ad suggests that the Pixel 8 series will be a major upgrade over the Pixel 7 series. The new AI features are especially promising and could make the Pixel 8 series the best camera phone on the market.
The Pixel 8 series is expected to be announced in October 2023, so we will have to wait until then to learn more about these new AI features. However, the leaked ad is a good indication that Google is serious about AI-powered photography and videography.
