Google launches AI-powered Pics design tool for everyday creators

Google launched Pics, an AI-powered design tool for posters, social media posts, visuals and illustrations.
Users describe desired designs through prompts instead of creating visuals entirely from scratch.
Pics uses Google’s Nano Banana image-generation model for image creation and editing.
The tool can isolate objects, modify or translate image text, support collaboration and generate multiple versions.
Pics is rolling out in Google Docs and Slides, with Google Drive support planned later.
