Google has announced new artificial intelligence-based features for Google TV. Additionally, YouTube Shorts videos will be added directly to the home screen. Techcrunch.com reports on this.

The main part of this update is focused on Gemini capabilities. Through the "Create" button in the Gemini section, users can test generative artificial intelligence tools such as Nano Banana and Veo.

These features will initially be launched on TCL televisions in the US that support the Gemini system.

The Nano Banana model allows users to modify images through voice commands. With its help, it is possible to change clothes, alter backgrounds, or create entirely new scenes.

Veo, meanwhile, enables the creation of short videos from scratch or the animation of static images.

Google Photos is also being updated within the Google TV system. Through Gemini search, users can quickly find desired memories.

Additionally, a "Remix" feature has been added, allowing various artistic styles to be applied to images.

Furthermore, animated layouts and frames will be provided through "Dynamic Slideshows." A new row of short videos consisting of YouTube Shorts content will also appear on the Google TV home screen.
