Google has announced a new artificial intelligence-based tool for creating images

Google introduces the new Search Generative Experience (SGE), which allows users to generate images directly from textual input.Previously, Microsoft offered a similar capability using the DALL-E model from OpenAI.

Additionally, users can now create drafts within the SGE generative search experience and customize output properties such as length, style, and other writing attributes.

These new features come after a series of rapid updates to the SGE generative search experience, enabling it to perform various tasks such as summarizing content, creating definitions for unfamiliar terms, generating code, and providing useful features in travel and product searches.By utilizing artificial intelligence to create images, users can specify the type of image they desire, such as photographs or artistic illustrations. The SGE generative search experience provides four downloadable results in PNG format, or users can modify the request to generate a new set of images.

This feature is implemented using Google's Imagen text-to-image conversion model and can also be used when searching for images through Google's search engine.

In case the desired image is not found during browsing, users can input a new request to create a new image.

Users wishing to use this feature must be adults due to the potentially inappropriate content that can be generated using artificial intelligence.

Google has implemented strict content filtering policies to control and prevent the creation of harmful or misleading images, as well as prohibiting references to specific individuals or the generation of realistic images of recognizable people. These measures aim to prevent the spread of misinformation.
