Google Bard may have just launched, but Microsoft has once again caught the attention of its Bing with ChatGPT AI with the imminent release of a long-awaited feature: AI image generation.
AI artwork creation tools have been popular for a while now, but what makes Bing with ChatGPT different is the ability for users to make changes through a thread. Like you might ask a human artist to add a few tweaks here and there.
For example, the vice president of the company At Bing and Microsoft Jordi Ribas (Opens in a new tab) Show the advantage by having the AI draw a picture of a Shih-Tzu sailing a boat.
Ai completed this as expected but then Ribas asked Ai to “add the University of Michigan colors” which she then dressed up in purple and yellow dog clothes and repainted the boat. A typical AI technical tool will not know what the colors of the university are and will require an explicit explanation of them.
Excited to share the Bing Image Creator being released in preview of Bing and the new Edge today. You can now create an image simply by using your own words to describe the image you want to see. (1/4) pic.twitter.com/kSmvopFJOFMarch 21, 2023
in blog post (Opens in a new tab) Microsoft has also shown that AI can switch between image and text responses in the same conversation. While text responses are powered by GPT4, image generation is handled by OpenAI’s image tool DALL∙E.
While we haven’t been able to get Bing chat to generate images yet, you can try the preview (Opens in a new tab) for its own image generation technology now. Interestingly, a startup based in New York Created an artificial intelligence that can create videos from the text.
Bing vs cool
With Google Bard starting to roll out to the public (you still have a waiting list), we can start making more direct comparisons between the two.
Bard does not currently have multimedia capabilities such as image creation but it does not have a turn limit. This suggests that Google has more confidence in its chat model than Microsoft which is limiting Bing chats after finding that longer chats can cause this. go off the deep end.
In terms of text responses, both bots appear to be quite confident but in reality they use two different models. Bing uses GPT4 while Bard uses Google’s LLAMDA model.
However, for Bard to match Bing’s filming efforts, it wouldn’t be useful (or fun) for the creators.
