The tool understands a site's layout, allowing users to edit content, adjust styles, and create images using natural language commands like 'make this section more modern.' It leverages Google's Gemini Nano models for image generation and integrates into the block editor for collaborative editing. The assistant is an opt-in feature for users with compatible block themes.
