The technology can also generate images with descriptions based on specific locations or even complex text

Google has repeatedly shown what its various machine learning algorithms, such as MUM or LaMDA, are capable of , and continue mirroring them with a new model of artificial intelligence called ‘Image’.
According to Jeff Dean, head of AI at the company, this promises to “unleash joint creativity between humans and computers” and to be able to generate images from a single, short and simple text description.
< p class=”paragraph”>’Image’ is very similar to DALL-E-2, the artificial intelligence developed by Open AI (company founded by Elon Musk ) which also allows you to create an image from a written description. However, there are some differences between the two models, such as the level of detail and the efficiency in creating this image.
Specifically, Google claims that its AI provides results with a much more precise level of detail than other systems. To verify this, the company has created a benchmark called DrawBench, which compares your AI model with similar models, and presents the results side by side for the user to view. The “human evaluator” can distinguish between them and choose the most realistic.
These people, according to the company, concluded that the photographs produced by ‘Imagen’ were of higher quality and “images aligned to the described text”, being better than the rest of the models.

An artificial intelligence more efficient than others
‘Image’, Google’s AI that generates an image from a short text description, is also “more computationally efficient, more memory efficient and converges faster” thanks to its proprietary architecture called AT. As a result, surreal images are produced more accurately than any other model and any type of text description.
“A transparent sculpture of a duck made of glass. The sculpture is in front of a painting of a landscape”, “a couple of robots having dinner with the Eiffel Tower in the background”, or “a dog looking curiously at itself in the mirror, seeing a cat”, they are phrases that Google uses as an example to demonstrate what its AI model is capable of.
These are some of the ones that can be found on its page web:

Google, on the other hand, claims that “Image” can also generate images with descriptions based on specific locations or even complex text. For example, if a user enters “A giraffe running with a rabbit in the La Bombonera stadium in Buenos Aires”, the company’s AI will generate an image based on this description and will understand the scientific name of both animals, as well as places.
‘Image’ is, at this time, an internal project and not accessible to the public, as it may lead to the creation of images that contain “stereotypes and harmful representations”, as the company explains .
“Image relies on text encoders trained on uncurated web-scale data and thus inherits the social biases and limitations of large linguistic models. As such, there is a risk that Image has encoded harmful stereotypes and portrayals, which guides our decision not to release Image for public use without further safeguards,” mentions Google.
