Last month, Microsoft announced that it would integrate its Bing search engine with OpenAI’s DALL∙E so that Edge web browser users can create images using text. While, previously, the feature was only available to a limited number of users, Microsoft confirmed this week that it is now rolling out the new Edge image generator to everyone.
Microsoft Edge’s Image Creator is now available to everyone
According to a recent blog post by the company, the Image Creator feature is now available to all Microsoft Edge users on desktop. This includes Windows, macOS, and Linux versions. For those unfamiliar, Image Creator uses a DALL∙E (an artificial intelligence) model to generate new images based on text commands.
Microsoft says users can use AI to help create “very specific visuals for a social post or even a PowerPoint”. To use the new feature, simply click on the Image Creator icon in the sidebar of Microsoft Edge and type in what you want to generate. The generated image can be downloaded and used anywhere.
This feature will help you create images that don’t exist yet, powered by the latest DALL∙E models from our partners at OpenAI, directly from the Microsoft Edge sidebar. If you’ve ever found yourself in need of a very specific visual for a social post or even PowerPoint, Image Creator can help you find exactly what you need.
The announcement comes after Microsoft Edge was updated with ChatGPT integration. As a result, Bing search results now have the answer you’re looking for instead of just showing you links to other websites.
Apart from Image Creator, the April update of Microsoft Edge adds a few other new features as well. These include a new way to share files and notes between devices, a basic built-in image editor and enhanced efficiency mode to save even more battery life on laptops.
You can download Microsoft Edge for free for your computer through the Microsoft website.
