Google To Relaunch Tool For Creating AI-Generated Images of People

Google announced that it will reintroduce AI image generation capabilities through its Gemini tool, with early access to the new Imagen 3 generator available for select users in the coming days. The company pulled the feature shortly after it launched in February when users discovered historical inaccuracies and questionable responses. CNBC reports: "We've worked to make technical improvements to the product, as well as improved evaluation sets, red-teaming exercises and clear product principles," [wrote Dave Citron, a senior director of product on Gemini, in a blog post]. Red-teaming refers to a practice companies use to test products for vulnerabilities. Citron said Imagen 3 doesn't support photorealistic identifiable individuals, depictions of minors or excessively gory, violent or sexual scenes. "Of course, as with any generative AI tool, not every image Gemini creates will be perfect, but we'll continue to listen to feedback from early users as we keep improving," Citron wrote. "We'll gradually roll this out, aiming to bring it to more users and languages soon."
