It’s pretty simple, just open the software and type in any random description that comes to mind, such as “two robots sitting at a table with the Eiffel Tower in the background” and wait for the magic to happen.

The platform’s artificial intelligence can rely on a range of styles to render the image, such as oil paintings, photographs, and CGI renderings. In some cases, the result is not what the user expects, as the scene drawn by the search giant’s robot looks unfinished, blurred or smeared, but in others the drawing is quite realistic.
