• Google Photos will soon show a new AI Info section on photos edited with AI.
• The AI Info section will appear on photos edited with Magic Editor, Magic Eraser, and Zoom Enhance features.
• Google will also show IPTC metadata for photos captured using the Best Take and Add Me features.

Earlier today, we highlighted an upcoming Google Photos feature that would add a new AI Info section to AI-manipulated images. Google has now officially announced the feature, and it will start rolling out to users next week.

In its announcement, Google notes that photos edited with AI-powered tools like Magic Eraser, Magic Editor, and Zoom Enhance already include IPTC metadata to indicate that they are edited using generative AI. The upcoming change makes “this information visible alongside information like the file name, location and backup status in the Photos app.”
