Google, the tech giant, has taken its Gemini AI image generator to the next level with an innovative editing tool that allows users to fine-tune specific parts of generated images. This new feature, available in the latest Android 15 Beta, provides a more customizable image generation experience by enabling users to make precise edits to specific areas of an image.
Previously, users could only generate images using text prompts. But now, users can highlight areas of an image and request changes. For instance, in a demonstration, a user generated an image of a dog wearing a hat and sunglasses, and then requested to “change the hat with a birthday hat”. The AI quickly adapted the image to fulfill the user’s request.
This new editing tool empowers users with granular control over the generated image, allowing them to customize the output in ways that were previously difficult. This offers incredible potential for creative expression and personalized image creation.
However, the tool is still in its beta phase, and it’s not without its limitations. The demonstration video showed that the AI sometimes struggled to accurately understand requests, resulting in inconsistent edits. Additionally, the process of making changes took a noticeable amount of time. Google is actively working on improving both the accuracy and speed of the tool before its official launch.
This development is part of Google’s ongoing efforts to enhance its Gemini AI image generator, which has been in development since its initial release. As the tool evolves, users can expect significant improvements in speed and accuracy, making it a powerful and intuitive tool for image generation and editing.
