Microsoft today announced that its AI-enhanced Bing browser now includes Bing Image Creator, image-generating technology powered by OpenAI's DALL-E deep learning model.
DALL-E is designed to generate digital content through natural language descriptions, and it has been a popular image generation tool for some time now. Microsoft says that the Bing Image Creator will bring AI-powered visual stories and updated Knowledge Cards to both Bing and the Microsoft Edge preview that has the same AI capabilities.
Bing Image Creator is integrated into the Bing chat experience, launching in creative mode to begin with. Typing in a description for an image, adding context like location or activity, and providing an art style will allow the Image Creator to generate a unique image.
Microsoft says that it is working with OpenAI to curb potential misuse of the image creator, and that it has implemented safeguards and additional protections to limit the generation of harmful or unsafe images.
Using the Bing Image Creator requires access to the Bing preview or the new Microsoft Edge experience. Not all Bing preview users will have access to the Image Creator right away, as Microsoft says it will be deployed with a phased approach. It will be available on both desktop and the Bing mobile apps for those who have been given access.

How do you possibly know how far away Apple may be? Pure guessing with no factual basis to back it up. Just more Apple hate, as I see it. And if this is the future, we are in deep sh*t.
There is no Apple hate. Look at how behind Siri is. Where is Apple's Search Engine Browser?
It was just my personal opinion based on what I think. Nothing else. I'll go ask Siri how far away Apple is.
How do you possibly know how far away Apple may be? Pure guessing with no factual basis to back it up. Just more Apple hate, as I see it. And if this is the future, we are in deep sh*t.
So first part of your comment, the attack, is, I guess, a legit question and we do not know how far away Apple is. But man, they have truly squandered the Siri position they purchased. I mean, can we say Siri is at the level of a "joke" vs. Microsoft, Amazon and Google products? Yes, anyone objective would do so.
So, if Apple has a 40 yard pass play called, that is great. But they do appear many years behind to me.
