Just as of February 1st, 2024, Google Bard has launched the most colorful feature yet: image generation.

Just ask Bard to create an image and describe what you want to see.
Google Bard is a large language model created by Google AI. Bard is trained on a massive text and code dataset, allowing it to generate text, translate languages, write creative content, and answer your questions informally. Bard is still under development, but it has learned to perform many kinds of tasks, including:
- Following your instructions and completing your requests thoughtfully.
- Using Bard's knowledge to answer your questions comprehensively and informally, even if they are open-ended, challenging, or strange.
- Generating different creative formats, like images, poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, emails, presentations, etc. Google Bard will try its best to fulfill all your requirements.
