Microsoft has unveiled MAI-Image-1, its first proprietary image generator. The company notes that this development marks a new stage in the evolution of its AI systems.
To create the model, Microsoft specialists collaborated closely with artists and designers to address common weaknesses of neural networks, such as repetition, formulaicity, and a lack of individuality in visual style.
According to the company, MAI-Image-1 demonstrates particularly high results when generating photorealistic images—landscapes, atmospheric scenes with lightning, and other complex effects. Furthermore, the new system is faster and more efficient than many similar competing solutions.
This generator is part of the expanding Microsoft AI ecosystem, which also includes MAI-Voice-1 (a voice synthesizer) and the MAI-1-preview chatbot. Microsoft emphasizes its strong commitment to security and responsible use of technology. The company assures that MAI-Image-1 is equipped with security mechanisms and does not generate inappropriate content.
As a reminder, we previously reported that ChatGPT will verify user age and restrict features for children.
