Ideogram, an AI startup based in Toronto, has officially launched its text-to-image generative platform. Joining competitors like Midjourney, DALL-E, and Adobe Firefly, Ideogram specializes in transforming text prompts into unique images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by AI experts from Google Brain, UC Berkeley, and the University of Toronto, Ideogram aims to make AI creativity accessible to everyone. The company’s CEO, former Google researcher Mohammad Norouzi, wants Ideogram to focus on creativity while maintaining high standards of trust and security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company was founded in 2021 by Mohammad Norouzi along with his partners Devon Turner, David Fleet, and Saurabh Gupta. Norouzi previously led an AI team at Google Brain for over 5 years. His co-founders also have experience at leading AI labs like Berkeley, Google, and Samsung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This experienced team has been researching generative models since 2016, long before tools like DALL-E exploded in popularity. Their initial work focused on text-to-image synthesis using genetic algorithms and adversarial training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Ideogram Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like other text-to-image platforms, Ideogram allows users to turn text prompts into images. The workflow is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Sign up with a Google email<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Enter text prompts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Choose between artistic styles like anime, dark fantasy, or graffiti<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Select image resolution<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Generate initial images (typically 4)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Remix and iterate by altering prompts and styles<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    This intuitive interface gives users creative control over the end product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ideogram AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Ideogram AI is a new generative AI that allows users to create images from text prompts within the application. Developed by ex-members of Google Brain, Ideogram differs from other tools and is an alternative to Midjourney for its ability to generate coherent text and images within the same image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"ideogram<\/a>
    ideogram ai – Examples of use<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Ideogram AI manages to be able to create coherent and readable text, which is far above other tools like Midjourney that I have been able to test so far. This will allow content creators more flexibility of use and a greater variety of styles due to the possibility of text creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To start using Ideogram AI, you just need to create a Google account and access the main page. There you can write your descriptive prompt in the text box, choosing whether you want the image horizontal or vertical. Then press the “Generate” button to create 4 images based on your prompt. You can choose to download them or remix them by changing words and phrases in the initial prompt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The images are generated below the text box in the web application. When you select an image you can see the other 3 images below the selected image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    And the end result would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you click on any image it allows you to view them one by one and access the Remix option.\"\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to Use Ideogram AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Using Ideogram AI is simple and intuitive. You just need to write the prompt that describes the image you want to generate, including any text you want to appear within the image. You can refer to people, places, objects, actions and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For example, a prompt could be: “A NASA astronaut walking on the surface of Mars with a United States flag that says First Crewed Mission to Mars.” This would generate a realistic image of that concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can also customize the image by choosing its orientation and size. Once generated, you can click on any image to view it large and download it. Remixing the prompt allows you to iterate and try variations to achieve the desired result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    AI in 2023<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    In 2023, generative artificial intelligence continues to advance rapidly. New tools like Ideogram AI allow anyone to access the creative possibilities of AI without programming knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The generative models trained this year have demonstrated a remarkable ability to automatically create coherent text and images. Startups like Anthropic have developed AI capable of generating written content indistinguishable from a human in certain contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It is expected that in the coming months practical applications for this technology will emerge, from content creation for creators to task automation. However, the ethics and potential for harmful use of generative AI remain important challenges for the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
