  "account": "Google's AI, Gemini Spark, is now able to automatically organize your phone's photos and videos. The personal AI agent can search media based on subject, location, date or event, identify and filter duplicates, enhance images, create collages and stylized pictures and videos. Users can instruct Spark to perform specific tasks such as finding the best 15 photos from a trip, improving beach shots, creating an album and setting up a corresponding email. Spark also has the ability to repeat tasks automatically, like finding and creating collages from monthly food photos. Additionally, Spark can extract information from photos and send it to other Google applications like Gmail, Docs and Messages. The AI leaves the original photos untouched, instead creating new edited copies. Google has implemented multiple confirmation steps to address privacy concerns, keeping albums private by default requiring explicit permission for actions like sharing or emailing. The feature is currently only available in the United States for users aged 18 and above, who must have a Google AI Pro or AI Ultra subscription.",
