Google just redesigned its creative platform Flow, folding experimental tools ImageFX and Whisk directly into a single workspace. Creators can now generate assets with the built-in Nano Banana model and immediately use them as ingredients for Veo video generations, alongside new lasso-based natural language precision editing.
Google just rolled out its flagship text-to-image model, Imagen 3, to all U.S. users via ImageFX alongside a detailed research paper. While users praise its photorealistic textures and crisp typography, the model's ultra-strict safety guardrails are already triggering frustration over blocked harmless prompts.
Google just introduced VideoFX, a new generative video tool powered by DeepMind's flagship Veo model that features a storyboard mode for scene-by-scene editing. The company also upgraded ImageFX with brush-based image editing and an Imagen 3 waitlist, alongside a DJ Mode beat-mixer in MusicFX.
Google just added AI image generation to its Bard chatbot, letting users create pictures for free using its Imagen 2 model. Unlike ChatGPT Plus, which locks DALL-E 3 behind a paid subscription, Bard offers it at no cost, complete with invisible SynthID watermarks. Why it matters: Google is making top-tier image gen accessible to everyone, though image prompts are currently limited to English.
