Google's recent blog post announced the availability of its generative AI on the platform's Search Bar and Google Images, giving users a chance to create images out of prompts or commands directly. Alongside this, Search also features the capabilities to help users create drafts of their write-ups like speeches, campaigns, and more via the renowned Google search bar.

The AI will automatically create these images as an initial draft to meet your needs, and users will get a chance to improve it by choosing the generated photo they prefer, featuring a text box to refine the result.

Through this, users can better what the AI has created initially, going more in-depth into its image generation via Google's tech known as Imagen.

Here's How to Use Google's Direct AI Image Generation

There is an initial requirement to use Imagen on Google's search bar, and this is through opting for its Search Generative Experience (SGE), the ticket needed for the AI image generation feature. After signing up for this, users may head to their Google search bar or Images to command the AI to create their preferred content, also having more customization tools along the way.

Generative AI, and more from Google

Everywhere we go, we see the technology known as AI or artificial intelligence, and this is because of its significant presence in the world now, led by Big Tech for the development of its services. Google is heavily focused on everything AI, including the much-coveted Generative AI now, centering on offering it to various platforms like Android and iOS for the likes of Bard.

Google has AI on its mind even for the latest development of its flagship smartphone, the Pixel 8 series, with the Google Photos app featuring an AI-powered media editing tool for all.

Its massive focus on AI is not limited anymore, as in almost all aspects of Google's apps, services, and tech, there is the technology available for the public to use, with free and paid experiences available. For Google Search and Images, generative AI is here to create prompts directly on the platform's search bar, leveraging its technology to be more accessible for all part of the program.
