Google Imagen 4, the latest advancement in the company's cutting-edge text-to-image model, is now available for free on AI Studio. In a recent blog post, Google announced the official rollout of this innovative model, emphasizing that the free access is only available for a limited time. This new version marks a significant upgrade from the previous generation, offering enhanced capabilities in image generation.
Unlike its predecessor, Imagen 3, the new Imagen 4 model provides substantial improvements in the quality of generated images. Google has introduced two new variants of this model. The first is the standard Imagen 4, which is optimized for everyday tasks. The second variant, known as Imagen 4 Ultra, serves as the flagship model, specifically designed to tackle a broader range of image generation tasks with remarkable enhancements in output quality.
Google has set the pricing for the new models, with Imagen 4 costing $0.04 per output image. In contrast, the Imagen 4 Ultra is slightly more expensive at $0.06 per output image. The higher price point for the Ultra version is justified by its ability to follow instructions more precisely, resulting in superior outcomes compared to competing models.
As of now, users of Gemini do not have access to the Imagen 4 model. However, Google has confirmed that it will be made available to paid users in the upcoming weeks. This rollout is expected to enhance the capabilities of Gemini, allowing users to benefit from the advanced features of the Imagen 4 model.
