You’ve probably heard the news: AI generates images, some kickass ones at that.
Generative AI’s glory moment before ChatGPT was image generation. Last year was a breakthrough year for technology when multiple companies came out with text-to-image-generation tools of their own. Today, social media platforms continue to brim with millions of artworks that people have created through AI.
Current Best Tools on the Market

Simplified is a one-stop platform for all your content creation needs. From text to images to even presentations, Simplified allows its users to make use of AI and ease the process of creating content.
To generate your own artwork, simply click on their text-to-image tool and input your prompt– Simplified takes it over from there. You can also choose a relevant theme for your artwork if you want it in a specific style. Here are a few artworks generated by Simplified:

Midjourney is an AI text-to-image tool that exists as a simple Discord bot called the Midjourney Bot. One can generate custom artwork using the tool by directly tying in the prompts using the “/imagine” command.
Once you join Midjourney’s Discord channel, navigate yourself to a Newbies channel to learn how to make use of the tool and finetune your image creation skills. Once you’ve done this, use the /imagine command to type in your prompt, and Midjourney Bot will generate 4 results for you to choose from.
