Apple's AI Revolution: Effortless Image Editing Is Here!

Welcome to the Future of Digital Creativity with Apple's MGIE

Hey, it's me, Dirk Zee!

Welcome to today's easy-to-snack-on AI Newsletter with some exciting news for tech enthusiasts and creative professionals alike!

Apple's Leap into AI-Driven Image Editing πŸš€

Apple has unveiled its groundbreaking MLLM-Guided Image Editing (MGIE) tool, a revolutionary step in image editing technology. MGIE allows users to effortlessly modify images using simple text prompts, eliminating the need for complex software.

In easy words?

An AI tool that is capable of MODIFYING existing images.

Here I’ve prompted to change the image from daytime to nighttime:

Developed in collaboration with the University of California, Santa Barbara, MGIE can perform a variety of edits, from basic adjustments like cropping and filtering to more intricate modifications such as reshaping objects and adding new elements.

FYI, here is what’s going on under the hood:

What sets MGIE apart is its intuitive approach, enabling edits with descriptions as straightforward as "make it more healthy" for adding vegetable toppings to a pizza, or "add more contrast to simulate more light" for brightening images.

Available for download on GitHub and featured in a web demo on Hugging Face Spaces, MGIE marks Apple's significant stride into the generative AI space, promising a future where AI enhances our digital creativity with unprecedented ease.

Stay tuned for more updates on how MGIE evolves and Apple's plans to integrate AI into our everyday tech experiences 😎 

My opinion? When you use DALL-E 3 or Mid Journey, you often have to start from scratch over and over again.

From my side, being able to edit an image using AI AFTER it got created is a huge step forward in generative AI.

Happy Editing,
Dirk Zee
