What happened

Canva, a design service, has launched its first own AI model that creates images. The news was reported by The Verge.

The main feature of the new model is that it doesn't start drawing right away. First, it seems to make a plan: it considers what should be placed where in the design, and only then creates the image itself.

How this helps everyday people

Most previous programs that draw from a text description generate a picture immediately. This approach sometimes produces a result where elements are placed awkwardly or don't match what was intended. When the model first makes a plan, the result can better match what the person had in mind.

For those who make posters, social media posts, presentations, or business cards, this may mean less time spent on revisions. For more details about the model's capabilities, its availability, and terms of use, it's worth checking Canva's official website.
