Microsoft is adding an AI-powered image creator to its Bing search engine starting today (March 21). The Bing Image Creator will be powered by an “advanced version” of OpenAI’s DALL-E model, the company behind Microsoft-funded AI chatbot ChatGPT. The Bing Image Creator will allow users to create images by simply writing what you want to generate.
“We’re excited to announce we are bringing Bing Image Creator, new AI-powered visual Stories and updated Knowledge Cards to the new Bing and Edge preview. Powered by an advanced version of the DALL∙E model from our partners at OpenAI, Bing Image Creator allows you to create an image simply by using your own words to describe the picture you want to see. Now you can generate both written and visual content in one place, from within chat,” said Yusuf Mehdi, corporate vice president and consumer chief marketing officer, in a blog post.
Bing Image Creator comes to Edge browser
Microsoft is also bringing the Bing Image Creator to its Google Chrome rival, Edge browser. A new icon will appear in the Edge sidebar that allows users to create images in a text entry prompt. Microsoft said that it is limiting this image creator to its creative mode in Bing and plans to optimize how it works in multi-turn chats. “We will initially only include Image Creator in the creative mode of Bing chat and our intention is to make it available in balanced and precise mode over time,” says Mehdi. Seems Microsoft is treading cautiously this time after Bing’s rude responses made headlines last month.
How to access Bing Image Creator
Bing preview users will be able to access the image creator in the usual chatbot prompt or through Microsoft Edge. Users who are not in the new Bing preview can access this Bing Image Creator separately at bing.com/create for English text-to-image generation. Microsoft said that it will add more language support over time.
Microsoft said that it’s protecting against any misuse. “We have ensured OpenAI’s safeguards, plus additional protections, have been incorporated into Image Creator,” wrote Mehdi. “For example, we have put controls in place that aim to limit the generation of harmful or unsafe images. When our system detects that a potentially harmful image could be generated by a prompt, it blocks the prompt and warns the user.”
More additions
Alongside this new image creator, Microsoft is also bringing its Stories and Knowledge Cards 2.0 features of Bing to all users. Stories aim to provide a more engaging way to search and interact with content, offering images and short videos, while Knowledge Cards highlight key information. Knowledge Cards 2.0 is an AI-powered infographic-inspired experience that provides fun facts and key information at a glance.
