Google has begun rolling out a new artificial intelligence feature in Google Photos that allows users to generate personalised memes starring themselves.
The tool, called Me Meme, uses generative AI to place a user’s photo into popular meme templates with customisable captions.
The feature was first reported in October 2025 and has now been released three months later. Me Meme adds to a growing list of AI-powered tools in Google Photos, including Create with AI, Photo to video, Remix, and Collage.
It is currently available only to users in the United States.
According to a Google community manager, Me Meme works by taking a selected photo of a person and inserting it into preset meme formats with humorous or relatable text. Users can choose from a catalogue of existing meme templates or upload their own and edit the captions to adjust the message or joke.
To create a meme, users need to select a portrait or image of themselves in Google Photos, tap the Create or Meme option, and then choose a template or add a custom one. The AI generates a meme image in a classic format, typically placing text above and below the image. Google said the templates and captions are designed to be fun, shareable, and consistent with widely used meme styles on social media.
Google said the feature is optional and only works on photos that users actively choose. Me Meme does not automatically generate content, and the AI process remains within the Photos app unless users decide to save or share the result.
The company did not clarify whether memes created using the feature will count toward Google Photos storage limits, though existing policies indicate that newly created items are generally treated as new files.
