Bing AI conversation from Microsoft can already be useful for discovering solutions, but now it can also assist you in creating fantastical images. The business has unveiled a Bing Image Creator preview that enhances Bing search and a sidebar in the Edge browser with OpenAI’s DALL-E AI image generation. Simply ask the chatbot to generate an image with a direct description or a response to an earlier question. You might ask Bing to generate some ideas for remodelling your living room based on your criteria if you’re unsure how to go.
Yes, Microsoft is aware that mistakes could be made. The business claims to be using “additional protections” in addition to OpenAI’s. According to the company, it will prevent you from producing possibly “harmful” photos. Microsoft makes it clear through watermarks and other means that photographs are produced using AI.
A small group of Bing desktop and mobile users can access Image Creator through a dedicated website and preview versions. Additionally, Edge users have access. If you’re a member of the test group, you’ll need to toggle the Creative mode in order to utilise the generator. However, Microsoft intends to make the creative tool available to users of Balanced and Precise modes in the future and hopes to optimise the system’s performance in multi-step discussions. The technology now only supports English, but more languages are being developed.
More AI systems are being integrated into Bing. The business is introducing AI-based Knowledge Cards that provide “dynamic” quick-glance information like timelines and infographics. Stories, on the other hand, offer images and quick videos related to searched themes.
The DALL-E tool is released at the same time as Adobe’s intentions to integrate generative AI into Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere Pro and NVIDIA’s debut of a customisable cloud AI service with picture creation. Microsoft is joining a growing number of IT behemoths that view AI picture generation as a useful tool, even if it is obvious that it is not directly competing with Adobe or NVIDIA. Additionally, Bing Image Creator might give them a competitive edge over Google, which just opened up access to its Bard AI chat after a small test.
