Google has introduced ImageFX, a new AI image generator as part of its AI Test Kitchen, which uses the Imagen 2 model to create images from text prompts. Available in select countries and English language, users can access ImageFX through the AI Test Kitchen, sign in with a personal Google account, and generate images by accepting default suggestions, adapting keywords, or using custom prompts. The tool also allows users to add text to the generated images and offers various customization options.
Google has quietly released ImageFX, a powerful AI image generator powered by the Imagen 2 model from DeepMind, offering impressive photorealistic results and unique features like seed control and prompt suggestions. ImageFX competes with Dall-E 3 and MidJourney, standing out for its cost-free access and superior photorealism, but it has limitations such as generating only square images and lacking support for negative prompting. A comparison of image generations shows ImageFX excelling in photorealism, while MidJourney is more artistic and Dall-E 3 is best for beginners.
Google has launched ImageFX, a standalone AI image generation tool powered by Imagen 2, the same technology behind Google Bard’s new AI image generation capabilities. ImageFX introduces "expressive chips" for exploring variations of the original idea and adds digital watermarks and IPTC metadata to generated images. Google also updates MusicFX for higher-quality audio and faster music generation. Both ImageFX and MusicFX are part of Google’s AI Test Kitchen, available for users in the US, Kenya, New Zealand, and Australia to try out in English.
Google has launched ImageFX, an AI-powered image creation tool underpinned by Imagen 2, allowing users to generate and modify images using a prompt-based UI and "expressive chips" for experimentation. The company claims to have implemented safeguards to prevent misuse, including filters for problematic content and digital watermarks for identification. Imagen 2 is also being integrated into Google's products and services, such as AI search and managed AI services, but the data used to train Imagen 2 remains undisclosed amid legal uncertainties regarding the use of publicly available data for commercial AI models.
Google has unveiled ImageFX, a new text-to-image generative AI tool with an interface featuring "expressive chips" for quick experimentation. The company has also improved MusicFX and TextFX, offering faster music generation and higher-quality audio, along with usability updates for TextFX. ImageFX-generated images and audio are tagged by SynthID and include IPTC metadata for transparency. The Imagen 2 model powers the new image generation features and other generative AI options, delivering high-quality AI-generated images while implementing safety measures to limit problematic outputs. Additionally, Gemini Pro in Bard is now available in over 40 languages and more than 230 countries, and people in most countries can generate images in Bard for free.
