There are times when you might be looking for a specific image, but you can’t find exactly what you have in mind. Or maybe you have an idea that you need help visualizing. So beginning today, we’re introducing the ability to create images with our generative AI-powered Search experience (SGE).
Let’s say you want to make a card for a friend who loves to cook and whose favorite animal is a capybara. If you search for something like “draw a picture of a capybara wearing a chef’s hat and cooking breakfast,” SGE will provide up to four generated images in the results.
Tap on any of those images and you’ll see how generative AI has expanded your initial query with descriptive details, like “a photorealistic image of a capybara wearing a chef’s hat and cooking breakfast in a forest, grilling bacon.” From there, you can edit the description further to add even more detail and bring your vision to life. Maybe you want to see the capybara chef making hash browns instead, or you want to add a light blue background with clouds. That’s an easy change!
Create images with generative AI
Sometimes it happens that you are looking for a specific image but cannot find exactly what you had in mind. Or maybe you have an idea that needs help visualizing. That’s why, starting today, we’re introducing image generation using an AI-powered search generative experience (SGE).
Let’s say you want to create a card for a friend who loves cooking and whose favorite animal is a capybara. If you search for something like “draw an image of a capybara wearing a chef’s hat and making breakfast,” SGE will provide up to four generated images in the results.
Search for inspiration with SGE
Sometimes, when you’re looking for a project or topic, you’ll look for ideas and inspiration to write about along the way. To facilitate this longitudinal research, we include written manuscripts in SGE. You can shorten the draft or change the tone to be more comfortable.
For example, you may be considering home improvement projects, such as how to turn your garage into a home office. After finding useful ideas on the web and contractors you want to connect with, you can ask SGE to “write to contractor requesting a quote to convert my garage into a home office” .
From there, it’s easy to export your draft to Google Docs or Gmail when you’re ready to add your own touch. And rest assured that Google Workspace’s privacy protections are applied to this export feature.
This new feature will allow you to get even more help with your research and is rolling out today to those already participating in the SGE English experience in the US.
We believe synthetic AI in search can help inspire and help you achieve more. We look forward to continued testing and user feedback.
You can sign up and share your feedback on our general AI experiments through Search Labs in the Google app (Android and iOS) or on Chrome desktop.
