Google has but another AI tool so as to add to the pile. Whisk is a Google Labs picture generator that permits you to use an present picture as your immediate. However its output solely captures your starter picture’s “essence” slightly than recreating it with new particulars. So, it’s higher for brainstorming and rapid-fire visualizations than edits of the supply picture.
The corporate describes Whisk as “a brand new sort of artistic device.” The enter display screen begins with a bare-bones interface with inputs for fashion and topic. This straightforward introductory interface solely helps you to select from three predefined types: sticker, enamel pin and plushie. I believe Google discovered these three allowed for the sort of rough-outline outputs the experimental device is most splendid for in its present kind.
As you possibly can see within the picture above, it produced a stable picture of a Wilford Brimley plushie. (Google’s phrases forbid photos of celebrities, however Wilford slipped by way of the gates, Quaker Oats in tow, with out alerting the guards.)
Whisk additionally features a extra superior editor (discovered by clicking “Begin from scratch” from the principle display screen). On this mode, you should utilize textual content or a supply picture in three classes: topic, scene and magnificence. There’s additionally an enter bar so as to add extra textual content for ending touches. Nevertheless, in its present kind, the superior controls didn’t produce outcomes that appeared something like my queries.
For instance, try my try and generate the late Mr. Brimley in a lightbox scene within the fashion of a walrus plushie picture I discovered on-line:
Whisk spit out what appears to be like like a vaguely Wilford Brimley-esque actor consuming oatmeal inside a lightbox body. So far as I can inform, that dude just isn’t a plushie. So, it’s clear why Google recommends utilizing the device extra for “speedy visible exploration” and fewer for production-ready content material.
Google acknowledges that Whisk will solely draw from “just a few key traits” of your supply picture. “For instance, the generated topic might need a special peak, weight, coiffure or pores and skin tone,” the corporate warns.
To grasp why, look no additional than Google’s description of how Whisk works underneath the hood. It makes use of the Gemini language model to jot down an in depth caption of the supply picture you add. It then feeds that description into the Imagen 3 image generator. So, the result’s a picture based mostly on Gemini’s phrases about your picture — not the supply picture itself.
Whisk is barely obtainable within the US, not less than for now. You may attempt it on the challenge’s Google Labs site.
