Google's Gemini has long been able to create images based on your descriptions. But the latest features promise even better quality. Upgrading its image generation capabilities to Imagen 3 from Imagen 2, Gemini can now conjure up higher-quality images from your requests. The new image creation skills are accessible to both free and paid users of Gemini.

Google touts Imagen 3 as superior to its predecessor in several ways.

  • Enhanced image quality:Images will include crisper details, more vibrant colors, and fewer imperfections.
  • Better text generation:Wordmarks and taglines are better integrated into your images.
  • Lifelike visuals:People, pets, and scenes are rendered in more photorealistic detail.
  • Diverse styles: Your images can adopt any style from classic oil painting to modern digital art.

A recent report from Google DeepMind evaluated Imagen 3 against Imagen 2 and other AI models, such as DALL-E 3, Midjourney v6, Stable Diffusion 3 Large, and Stable Diffusion XL 1.0. In a test that asked how satisfied people were with the image based on the prompt, Imagen 3 came in first by a significant margin. The powers of Imagen 3 are also accessible through ImageFX, Google's standalone image generator.

You can tap into Gemini's new capabilities at the Gemini website, in the GoogleAndroid app , and in the GoogleiOS app . I'll cover all three below. Now, let's see how this works.

How to use Google Gemini to generate high-quality images

Use the Gemini website

1. Browse to the Gemini website

First, fire up your favorite browser and head to the Google Gemini website. If prompted, sign in with your Google account. That places you at the main screen where you can start chatting with Google's AI. If you're a free user, you'll see Gemini listed as the option at the top. If you're a paid subscriber to Google One's AI Premium plan, you'll find options for both Gemini and Gemini Advanced.

2. Generate a sample image

To get a feel for Gemini's image generator skills, start with one of the sample requests for image creation. If any words are highlighted, you can replace them with your own choices. Click the arrow to submit the request.

3. View the resulting image

Gemini will tell you that it's creating the image with Imagen 3. The generated image then appears. If you're unhappy with the image, you can refine and resubmit the prompt with more details or directions.

4. Create your own prompt

Next, it's time to try it on your own. Start a new chat and devise a description of an image you want to see. Remember to include the necessary details to convey both the scenario and the style for the image. For example, I asked Gemini to "create an oil painting of a group of Vikings battling a large fire-breathing dragon with snow-capped mountains in the background." When ready, click the Submit button.

In response, Gemini creates an image that matches, or attempts to match, your description.

5. Respond to the result

You can react to the result in one of several ways. Click the thumbs-up icon if you like the image or the thumbs-down icon if you're unhappy with it. Depending on the direction of your virtual thumb, you can provide additional feedback to tell Google why you rated the image the way you did.

Click the Share icon to share the images with another person, export them to Google Docs, send them to a Gmail email, or download all the images as a ZIP file containing individual JPGs.

6. Revise the prompt

If you want to add more details to the prompt or otherwise revise it, click the "Edit text" button next to your description. After you've revised it, click the Update button.

Use the Gemini Android app

Google offers a dedicated Gemini app for Android users. Like the website, the app will generate images based on your descriptions.

1. Submit your request

Download the app from Google Play if you don't already have it. After launching the app, type or speak a description of the image you want at the prompt. In response, Gemini tells you that it's creating your image using Imagen 3 and then displays the result.

In the Google app, tap the Shortcuts icon at the bottom (the one that contains four squares) and select Gemini from the menu. At the prompt, type or speak a description of the image you want. Gemini tells you that it's creating your image using Imagen 3 and displays the result.
