Google announced this week that it will add a digital watermark to images edited using its Magic Editor AI feature. This watermark is particularly suited for images modified via the Reimagine feature on Pixel 9 devices. The launch of this new feature aims to enhance the public's ability to identify AI-generated and edited content. The Reimagine feature, announced in 2024, utilizes generative AI technology to significantly modify digital photos.

Google introduced a voice chat mode called Gemini Live at the Pixel 9 launch event, providing Gemini premium users with a flexible conversational experience. This feature is similar to ChatGPT, allowing users to choose from multiple voices during conversations, enabling seamless interruptions and interjections without touching the screen. The design goal is to enable 'free-flowing' dialogue, supporting multitasking and functioning in the background even when the phone is locked. Gemini Live is already available on Android devices.

In the early hours of today, Google launched the Pixel 9 series smartphones featuring the AI assistant Gemini. This move marks Google's comprehensive integration of large language model (LLM) AI technology into the Android operating system, aiming to enhance user experience and boost device performance.
