With all the investment Google has made into artificial intelligence (AI), it's not surprising the tech giant recently launched its own AI-powered image generator, ImageFX, which is set to rival OpenAI's DALL-E 3, Midjourney, Microsoft's Image Creator by Designer, and many others.

ImageFX is powered by Imagen 2, the latest generation of Google's text-to-image technology. Each image created with ImageFX is embedded with DeepMind's SynthID, a digital watermark that is invisible to the naked eye, but which shows that the image was created by AI.

2. Log in with your Google account

This step requires you to sign in to your Google account and, if it's your first time using ImageFX, you'll need to click through the AI Test Kitchen's email settings, such as whether or not you'd like to receive marketing emails or research invitations. You'll also have to review the AI Test Kitchen's privacy policy and terms of service.

Google will also give you a brief overview of ImageFX, explaining what it is, reminders to respect the rights of others, and explaining how AI-generated images can include mistakes.

3. Enter your prompt

It's important to be as detailed as possible when you enter a prompt for image creation. Try to imagine the image you want to see and then write a description of what you want. 

It's worth adding the format of the image you want, such as whether it's a photo, a 3D render, a drawing, etc. You can go as far as adding a style, like impressionism, abstract, vaporwave, etc.

Entering your prompt in ImageFX is different to other AI image generators, but it's still intuitive.

4. View your images and download

ImageFX lets you view the four images it created with your prompt, and you can click on each one to copy the prompt or the image, download them, and share them.

FAQs

Can ImageFX change an image it has created?

If you give ImageFX a prompt and don't like any of the outputs, you can tweak your prompt on the left-hand side of the window and regenerate your image. In fact, Google creates dropdown menus on each keyword in your prompt:

In my example above, Google created dropdown menus on the bolded words from my prompt: "photo of a kangaroo in a colorful bakery looking at desserts in a display case with flowers and pastel colors." For each one, Google gave alternatives -- if I clicked on 'colorful', for example, Google suggested 'monochromatic', 'neutral colors', and 'muted colors'. 

Is Google's AI image generator free?

Yes, ImageFX is free, as is Gemini's (formerly Bard's) image generation capability. All you need to do to use Google's AI image generator is to log in to a Google account.
