- Meta’s Imagine AI image generator tool is launching as a standalone product.
- Users in the US can use text prompts to generate images through their desktop or mobile browser.
- Previously, Imagine was available only through the Meta AI virtual assistant in chat apps.
Like every company in Silicon Valley, Meta is also betting big on AI. Alongside the announcement of the broader rollout of its Meta AI assistant across WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger, the company has also announced that it is launching Imagine, its AI image generator, as a standalone product for users in the US.
When we talk of AI image generators, the top picks are usually Midjourney and DALL-E. The issue with both is that they are a bit complex for the average user and also cost money. Meta’s Imagine AI image generator is currently free to use, and it opts for a simpler interface that presents the user with nothing but a text box and a generate button.
