Artificial Intelligence (AI) was all the rage at the highly anticipated Google Pixel event on eroticism angelaWednesday. It's giving us AI improvements across the Pixel Buds Pro, Google Home, the Pixel Watch 2, and FitBit. It seems that Google is sure AI is the way of the future.
So it should come as no surprise that AI also slipped its way into the new Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro phones.
1. Magic Editor
The Magic Editor, which was announced earlier this year, uses generative AIto help users edit, from resizing to repositioning a subject. For example, in the images below, you can use Magic Editor to move the woman inside the yellow tent closer to the group.

The Pixel 8 Pro will have Zoom Enhance, which uses generative AI to make your zoom look even more realistic by filling gaps between pixels with predictive details. In other words, if you take a blurry zoomed-in photo, the Zoom Enhance feature can fix it for you.
3. Recorder
Of course, Google didn't stop at just photos — it's also improving the Recorder app by using generative AI. The Pixel 8 Pro will come with a Recorder app that can automatically summarize your conversation and send you a few important bullet points. This feature won't be out until later this year.
4. Audio Magic Eraser
Audio Magic Eraser Credit: Google Audio Magic Eraser is a new feature that lets you remove any extraneous, unwanted sounds from your videos. It can identify the sounds by sorting them into different categories: Speech, Crowd, Noise, Wind and Music. As such, you can choose to get rid of the drone of a noisy conversation behind you (i.e., you can tap on "Crowd") or an unwanted whistle during inclement weather (e.g., you can tap on "Wind").
