Google launches Imagen 3 in the US: a new image generator with artificial intelligence

Google has officially unveiled Imagen 3, a new version of its AI image generator. The tool, previously announced at the I/O event in May, is now available to all users in the US via the Vertex AI platform.

Here's What We Know

Imagen 3 promises significant improvements over previous models, providing better detail, lighting, and fewer artefacts.

Google emphasises that Imagen 3 has an improved ability to understand long text cues and generate a variety of visual styles. The model will offer several options for different tasks, from quick sketches to high-quality images.

The launch of Imagen 3 coincides with the release of a similar tool, Grok-2 , from xAI, founded by Elon Musk, which has no security filters.

Google emphasises that Imagen 3 was created with special attention to security. The company has used data filtering and labelling to prevent the creation of unwanted or malicious content.
