Imagen is one of Google's foundation models, a text-to-image diffusion model developed by Google AI.

Google’s new foundation model, Imagen, is here to bring your dreams to life. Ever wondered what your dreamy doughnut descriptions would look like in real life? Or fantasized about being a pirate with a parrot on your shoulder? (Arr, Matey! 🦜)

Take a peek into the world of Image Generation. Just don’t blame me if you end up with a doughnut craving. 🍩

Imagen is able to understand the nuances of human language in order to create images that are both realistic and creative. It is a powerful new tool that has the potential to revolutionize the way we create and interact with images. There is a lot of potential to be used in a wide variety of applications.

All the code for this article is ready to use in a Google Colab notebook. If you have questions, please reach out to me on LinkedIn. Though for this particular use case and especially during prompt experimenting, I can highly recommend Google's Generative AI Studio UI.

Obviously, if you want to put it into production, use the API.
