Today, Bing Image Creator will begin integrating with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/1506016\/hands-on-with-bings-ai-chat-and-search.html\">Bing Chat\u2019s textual chatbot<\/a>, but also generate images at its own site,  .<\/p>\n<p>Put another way, that means that you\u2019ll be able to ask Bing\u2019s chatbot to create your own images from an integrated text prompt within Bing Chat, or else use the dedicated site. There\u2019s a third option, too: Use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/1656353\/microsoft-edge-copilot-adds-ai-content-creation-to-your-browser.html\">new Edge Copilot sidebar<\/a> within Microsoft Edge, which has been used for textual generation via AI. Microsoft now says that you\u2019ll see a small image icon within the sidebar\u2014or you will, when it rolls out. Image generation will be integrated within preview versions of Microsoft Edge, the company . <\/p>\n<p>Though PCWorld has access to Bing Chat, image generation doesn\u2019t seem to be part of the chatbot\u2019s capabilities at the moment. That\u2019s coming shortly, however: \u201cBing Image Creator integrated into Bing Chat will begin to roll out to Bing preview users on both desktop and mobile starting today,\u201d Microsoft said.<\/p>\n<p>Bing Image Creator is what you should be interested in, and for good reason. Here\u2019s how Bing Image Creator works.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-use-bing-image-creator\">How to use Bing Image Creator<\/h2>\n<p>Bing Image Creator is well-designed, if basic. You\u2019ll need a Microsoft account to log in.<\/p>\n<p>Bing Image Creator works like other AI image-generation algorithms: Type in a prompt, and Bing\u2019s AI will generate for you. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/1346579\/microsoft-will-bring-ai-art-to-windows-edge.html\">Microsoft is using Dall-E 2\u2019s AI model<\/a>, as the company said last year, which goes  far beyond <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/1338403\/the-grandfather-of-ai-art-dall-e-is-now-free-for-you-to-try.html\">the original Dall-E, which you can use<\/a> and compare for free. <\/p>\n<p>Bing Image Creator powered by Dall-E 2 is very, very good. Images are detailed, and the prompts are responsive; images take about 15 seconds or so to generate. (You\u2019ll still see some of the traditional problems with AI art, however, such as issues rendering fingers and hands. Each time you enter a prompt, you\u2019ll receive four 1024\u00d71024 square images. Right now, however, there are no advanced options: You can\u2019t specify the dimensions of the image, and there are no options to tweak, such as how closely the images will match your prompt. Inpainting, where you can adjust portions of the image, aren\u2019t there either, though you could import the image into another service for that task.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" id=\"1666614\" src=\"https:\/\/b2c-contenthub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/snowman-1.png\" alt=\"Bing Image Creator\" width=\"2270\" height=\"1272\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" id=\"1666619\" src=\"https:\/\/b2c-contenthub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Bing-Image-Creator-hands.jpg?quality=50&#038;strip=all\" alt=\"Bing Image Creator hands\" width=\"2268\" height=\"1243\"><\/p><figcaption>Generated images are detailed, but you can still see some problems with how Bing Image Creator generates hands.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Microsoft hasn\u2019t addressed the issue of copyright. Instead, it dances around it by adding a small watermark to the corner of each generated image.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, Bing Image Creator gives you 25 image \u201cboosts,\u201d which appears to be Microsoft\u2019s version of the \u201cfast\u201d image creation used by sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/820518\/midjourneys-ai-art-goes-live-for-everyone.html\">Midjourney<\/a>. While Microsoft seems to be offering unlimited image generation, once your boosts expire, the time to generate an image will be slower. It\u2019s not clear right now how quickly boosts regenerate, or if they do; other sites offer the ability to \u201crank\u201d images for quality. <\/p>\n<p>What happens if you run out of Bing Image Creator boosts? Microsoft will use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/416083\/microsoft-rewards-is-how-microsoft-will-pay-you-to-use-edge-bing-and-more.html\">Microsoft Rewards<\/a> as a carrot, essentially \u201cpaying\u201d you to use Microsoft\u2019s services. Microsoft Rewards is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/393308\/how-to-use-microsoft-rewards-to-get-xbox-game-pass-for-pc-and-more-for-free.html\">handy way to earn credits for Microsoft\u2019s Game Pass Ultimate<\/a>, for example. \u201cIf you run out of boosts, you have the option to use Microsoft Rewards to redeem for additional boosts and enjoy faster processing times,\u201d Microsoft says. <\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/b2c-contenthub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Content-warning.jpg?quality=50&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1200\" alt=\"Bing Image Creator\" width=\"1200\" height=\"847\"><figcaption>If you generate a prompt that Microsoft deems unsafe, Bing will block it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Microsoft<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>We haven\u2019t had a chance to test out Bing Image Creator within Bing Chat, but remember that you can combine the two: You could always ask Bing Chat for an interesting prompt, and it will make its own suggestions. You\u2019ll find it first within Bing Chat\u2019s Creative mode, the company says, then later in the other modes as well.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft has put content controls in place \u201cto limit the generation of harmful or unsafe images,\u201d the company says. If you prompt an \u201cunsafe\u201d image, Bing Image Creator will shut the prompt down and refer you its content policy, <em>and<\/em> warn that repeated violations could cut you off entirely. (When we tried a prompt that asked for an image of \u201cDonald Trump and Matt Damon playing tennis,\u201d the prompt was flagged.)<\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/b2c-contenthub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Bing-Image-Creator-within-Bing-Chat.jpg?quality=50&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1200\" alt=\"Bing Image Creator Bing CHat\" width=\"1200\" height=\"672\"><figcaption>Here\u2019s how Bing Image Creator will look in Bing Chat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Microsoft<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Given that Microsoft has frequently updated Bing Chat, we\u2019d expect the Bing Image Creator experience to evolve and receive updates. <\/p>\n<p>Finally, Microsoft is also enhancing the basic search experience with what it calls Knowledge Cards 2.0 and Visual Stories, which are AI-powered summaries of your search topic. Basically, Bing Search now offers several ways of learning more about your search topic: traditional search results, a Chat summary of what it finds, as well as Knowledge Cards and Visual Stories, which will sum up information in infographics. Google\u2019s Bard AI search, which entered waitlist status today, clearly has some work to do.<\/p>\n<p><\/body><\/div>\n<div data-ga=\"article-footer-author\">\n<h3>\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/author\/mhachman\" rel=\"author\"><br \/>\n\t\tAuthor: Mark Hachman<\/a>, Senior Editor\t\t<\/h3>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/author_photo_Mark-Hachman_1632347568-61.jpeg?quality=50&#038;strip=all&#038;w=116&#038;h=116&#038;crop=1\" height=\"125\" width=\"125\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>As PCWorld&#8217;s senior editor, Mark focuses on Microsoft news and chip technology, among other beats.
