Microsoft has announced the launch of a new tool that uses artificial intelligence to help anyone create professional-quality graphics in minutes. The tool, called Microsoft Designer, is part of the Microsoft 365 suite and also via designer.microsoft.com and is available in Preview mode.
Microsoft Designer is designed to simplify the creative process by offering a range of features that assist users at every stage, from ideation to creation. Users can start with their own ideas or get inspired by the suggestions from the tool, which uses generative AI technology to create one-of-a-kind images, text, and layouts. Users can also customize their designs with fonts, colors, filters, stickers, and more.
Microsoft Designer can be used to create various types of graphics, such as social media posts, invitations, digital postcards, flyers, logos, and more. Users can also share their designs on various platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. Microsoft Designer also integrates with Microsoft Teams, allowing users to collaborate and communicate with their colleagues and friends on their projects.
Microsoft Designer is powered by OpenAI’s DALL-E, a neural network that can generate images from text descriptions. Microsoft is one of the investors in OpenAI, a research organization that aims to create artificial intelligence that can benefit humanity. Microsoft has also partnered with OpenAI to develop the Azure AI supercomputer, which hosts DALL-E and other AI models.
