I personally find Valentine’s Day to be one of the most difficult gift-giving occasions. I want to acquire something for my spouse, of course, but I also want to show my friends and family (and even my dogs) how much they are loved. But it’s a hard holiday. The ideal Valentine’s Day present is meaningful, but not overly sugary. Genuinely beneficial, but not very practical. It has a personal touch, but it could also be recreated for a friend (or three).
If you need a little assistance, here are six AI-powered Google tools for choosing the smarter gifts.
1. Conduct your study using Gen AI in Search.
Don’t judge me, but I love my dogs and want to give them more than just treats and toys this year. I could use some ideas. SGE, a generative AI experiment in Search Labs, can be useful in this scenario. It provides rapid access to information on various themes, such as Valentine’s Day gift suggestions. I may search “Valentine’s Day gifts for my dog” to get categories and products that fit this concept, such as heart-shaped dog treats or red and pink dog attire, as well as links to learn more. I might even come up with new ideas, such as going to a dog-friendly restaurant. To use Gen AI in Search when shopping, sign up for Search Labs via the Google app (Android and iOS) and Chrome desktop.
2. Be careful to check for offers.
I’ve been considering getting something (cheap!) for my sister, who enjoys meditation, to supplement her new healthy habit, but I’m not sure where to begin. Using Google’s Shopping Graph, I can search for “shop Valentine’s Day deals” and select the spa category to locate a nice present within my budget. The Shopping Graph is a machine learning-powered data set that includes brands, goods, and prices. Shoppers can locate a Valentine’s Day discounts destination with thousands of gift choices from various companies, all on sale. This user interface is accessible for U.S. consumers on mobile, desktop, and Google app (Android and iOS).
3. Use Google Lens to search and shop what you see.
When gift-giving inspiration strikes, Google Lens is the perfect accompanying tool. Lens is a useful shopping function that lets you take a photo of anything and find out what it is, where to buy it, or something similar. However, it can also function in a few other ways. My mum enjoys receiving flowers, so when I see some while running, I can immediately open the Google app (Android and iOS) and take a photo using Lens to identify them. (Multisearch allows for descriptive language to find similar flowers in a specific colour, such as blue.) And, because my husband and I prefer to spend Valentine’s Day on a fancy meal rather than exchanging gifts, if I see a photo of a pasta dinner we enjoyed while vacationing in Italy in my photo gallery, I can ask Lens to tell me more about it and direct me to a restaurant near me that serves it.
4. Circle up using Circle to Search before purchasing.
I get tonnes of gift ideas when I’m scrolling social media that makes me think of my friends and family. If I happen to come across an image that happens to have the perfect dog bed in the background, I can use Circle to Search to help me find out more about it without leaving whatever app I’m using. All I have to do is circle, highlight, or scrawl a certain portion of an item, and Circle to Search will let me learn more about it and even shop for it or comparable things from a variety of merchants without switching apps. Circle to Search is compatible with Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, and the latest Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
5. Consider AI-enhanced photo presents.
A picture is worth a thousand words—including “Thank you so much, I love it!” Sharing an elaborate meal is my primary love language, although photo presents are a close second. I take a lot of images with my Pixel 8 Pro, especially on special vacations and key occasions, and preserving those memories for my loved ones might be a thoughtful, reasonable gift. I used the Tensor-powered Super Res Zoom tool to snap this photo from a hiking vacation in Yosemite with my husband. For example, during a yearly camping trip with my girls, I captured a photo of the night sky using the AI-powered app Night Sight. Whatever photographs I use, I’ll also use AI editing features like Magic Eraser to remove undesired elements and Photo Unblur to clear them up before printing.
If you want to share or give a photo of you and your significant other, Best Take is your go-to tool. It utilises AI to scan multiple images and select the best image of each person.
When I’m ready to print, I utilise Google photographs to create photographs of many sizes, including canvas prints. If you have a large collection of photos, Google Photos can help you make a photo book. Using AI, this tool selects the best photos for your book while removing duplicates and low-quality images. Google Photos’ AI can even recommend themes for your photobook. For example, Google Photos’ AI suggested a complete Yosemite photo book to me and created it without urging. Which, in saving me so much time, feels like a gift from me to myself.
