Search function using Google’s AI, SGE (Search Generation Experience) So start learning some new skills today. The AI feature that introduces a conversational mode to search will allow SGE to generate images using direct prompts, similar to rival Bing’s support for OpenAI’s DALLE-E 3. Additionally, SGE allows users to create drafts internally. With SGE, you can customize the output to be longer or shorter, and change the tone of your writing to be more serious or casual.
These new features follow a series of rapid-fire updates to SGE as the pace of development of AI technology increases. In addition to coding improvements, over the past few months, SGE has already gained new capabilities such as AI-powered summaries and definitions for unfamiliar terms, as well as travel and product search capabilities. Masu.
With the new AI image generation feature, you can enter a prompt to specify the type of image you want, such as a drawing, photo, or painting. SGE returns four results directly in the SGE conversation experience. From there, tap an image that can be downloaded as a .png file, or edit the prompt that created the image to generate a new set. This feature is internally powered by Google technology. Imagen’s text-to-image model.

The same functionality is also available when using Google Image Search. If you can’t find the photo you want as you scroll through the image search results, you can create a new one using the prompts from the box that appears within the results.
Image generation by AI is already being done, so led to some inappropriate contentDespite recently opening up SGE to US teens ages 13 to 17, Google is restricting the new image generation feature to users 18 and older.

The company is also thinking about how to deploy this technology in a responsible way, which means adding fairly strict filtering policies to its products, the company told TechCrunch. These filters are aimed at preventing the creation of “harmful, misleading, or explicit images, or images that violate the Generated AI Prohibited Use Policy,” according to Google. We also block the creation of images that include realistic faces or prompts that mention famous people’s names. This block is not only intended to prevent inappropriate content, but also to prevent the spread of misinformation.
Of course, when it comes to tinkering with AI image generation tools to create obscene or crazy output, as we saw earlier this month when Meta and Bing’s AI image generation tools made headlines for being misused. People are pretty smart.create Inappropriate or shocking imagesdespite the policies set by the company.
Google acknowledges that its tools may not be perfect either. That’s why you’re still opting in, for starters. Through Google Search Lab. It also includes a feedback mechanism to allow users to report when the technology malfunctions or is being misused. Still, the company thinks it’s done a pretty good job implementing the filter, and thinks it’s even possible that people will run into more blocks than they expected. (Sounds like a challenge!)
Images also include metadata embedded in the file that identifies it as being generated by AI, and an embedded watermark that is invisible to the human eye. It leverages SynthID, which Google Cloud and Google DeepMind announced at the end of August.
Another new feature is based on SGE’s ability to act as a writing assistant. Already SGE may provide a written draft. This is Google’s integration of the idea that users might want to write an email to a company whose ads they found in a search. However, this draft creation feature now allows you to output different types of sentences, such as longer or shorter, or with a more serious or more casual tone.

Both the Alternate Draft and Image Generation new features will also have export options available through SGE. For the former, you can export your creations to Google Workspace apps like Gmail and Google Docs. On the other hand, you can save the generated images to Google Drive.

Both features are rolling out to select SGE users starting tomorrow and will be expanded to a broader user base in the coming weeks. Available to users who have opted in to use SGE. Via Google Search Lab Currently only available in English in the US, SGE itself recently expanded to India and Japan.
