Google Photos revolutionizes meme creation with AI-powered "Me Meme" feature

Google Photos has introduced a new experimental feature called “Me Meme,” which transforms selfies into fun and personalized creations using generative artificial intelligence. The feature, now available on Android and iOS versions, aims to simplify the process of creating memes from selfies, offering users an innovative way to share creative content.

What is “Me Meme”: Turning selfies into personalized works

The functionality allows users to choose from pre-defined official templates or upload their own reference images to generate unique memes. The process is intuitive: simply select a well-lit, clear selfie, and the generative AI does the transformation work. Once created, the resulting meme offers full flexibility—it can be edited as desired, permanently saved to the photo gallery, regenerated with different variations, or instantly shared with friends on social media.

How it works: From upload to innovative selfie creation

The workflow is developed within the “Create” tab of Google Photos, seamlessly integrating into the platform’s AI-powered creation tools. Users face no complex technical barriers—the interface guides the process step-by-step, from selecting the reference to final sharing. This approach democratizes visual content creation, allowing anyone to produce professional memes without prior technical knowledge.

Strategic expansion: Availability in the United States and next steps

Currently, “Me Meme” is gradually expanding among users in the United States, with Google remaining discreet about plans for global reach and future updates. While details about the scope of use are limited, the experimental rollout strategy suggests the company is testing receptivity before broadening availability. Including this tool in creative selfies reinforces Google’s commitment to integrating generative AI directly into users’ everyday applications, making content creation more accessible and engaging.
