Now when you point your camera (or upload a photo or screenshot) and ask a question using the Google app, the new Multisearch experience shows results with AI-powered insights that go beyond just visual matches. 

This gives you the ability to ask more complex or nuanced questions about what you see, and quickly find and understand key information.

Here's how to do it.
  • Open the Google mobile app.
  • Tap the camera icon in the search bar.
  • Take a picture of the object, landmark, or anything you want to learn about.

  • If needed, add a text query to further refine your search. 
  • For example, if you took a picture of a bottle of hot sauce, type "how can I use?"
  • Google presents results based on the image and additional query, including text descriptions, websites, similar images, and even shopping options.

How to Use Google’s New ‘About This Image’ Feature

Have you ever come across an image online that looked too good to be true? 

Or maybe you saw a photo that was used in a misleading or false context? 

How can you tell if an image is reliable or not?

Here's a Cool Tip.  Use Google's New About This Image feature.

Google  recently launched a new feature called About This Image that can help you find more information about the images you see on the web. 

This feature can help you check the credibility, context, and origin of an image, as well as whether it was generated or manipulated by artificial intelligence.

Here's how to do it.

From the three-dot menu in Google Search: 
When you come across an image on Google Images or Google Search page, tap the three-dot menu on the top right corner and select About This Image. 

Google will then tell you the background of the image so that you can check its credibility and context1.


Google About This Image
fig. 1 - Google About This Image


The About This Image feature provides you with four types of information about an image:
  1. When did Google first index the image and similar ones: This can help you determine how old the image is and whether it was published before or after a certain event.
  2. Where it may have first appeared: This can help you find the original source of the image and whether it is credible or not.
  3. Where else it’s been seen online: This can help you see how the image has been used on other websites, such as news, social media, and fact-checking sites. You can also compare how different sources present the same image and whether they are consistent or contradictory.
  4. Image metadata: This is information that image creators and publishers have added to an image, such as the title, description, author, date, location, etc. It also includes fields that may indicate whether AI has generated or enhanced the image. All Google AI-generated images have this markup in the original file.

fig. 2 - Google About This Image Results


The ‘About This Image’ feature has several benefits for users:
  • It can help you spot fake images and misinformation by providing you with more context and sources about an image.
  • It can help you verify the authenticity and accuracy of an image by showing you when and where it was first published and how it has been used online.
  • It can help you find more information and related content about an image by showing you other websites that have displayed it.
  • It can help you give credit to the original creator or publisher of an image by showing you their name and website.
About This Image can help you find more information about the images you see on the web.

Be sure to check it out.
