Meta unveils an independent artificial intelligence-driven image creation tool
December 7 2023
In response to Google’s Gemini launch, Meta has introduced Imagine with Meta, a web-based generative AI platform enabling users to generate images through natural language descriptions. This service closely resembles other AI-driven image generation tools such as OpenAI’s DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, and leverages Meta’s existing Emu image generation technology.

What does it mean?
- Generative AI: A type of artificial intelligence that can automatically create content, such as images, videos, or text, by learning from existing data.
- Natural language descriptions: Sentences and phrases used by humans in everyday communication; in this context, the descriptions are used as input for AI to understand and generate images.
- Web-based: A software or service that runs on the Internet and can be accessed using a web browser, without the need to download a separate application.
- OpenAI: An artificial intelligence research laboratory consisting of the for-profit OpenAI LP and its parent company, the non-profit OpenAI Inc.
- DALL-E: An AI program created by OpenAI that creates images from textual descriptions, demonstrating the ability to generate a wide variety of images from a diverse range of prompts.
- Midjourney: An independent research lab that explores new mediums of thought and expands the imaginative powers of humanity, which in this context probably refers to their work in AI-driven image generation.
- Stable Diffusion: An AI model that is capable of generating high-quality images based on text descriptions, offering controllable and diverse image synthesis.
- Emu image generation technology: A specific image generation technology developed by Meta, used to enable the creation of images from text descriptions, likely involving AI systems.
