Transcripts
mid Journey costs $10 per month chat GPT
cost $20 a month which can get quite
expensive but luckily I'll show you
seven image generators you can use for
free I'll show you the quality of the
images that they generate the extra
features they have included and how free
is it really so by the end of this video
you can find your new favorite AI image
generator number one cart. a this may be
one of the easiest one for you to use to
create a variety of different images
completely for free the best part about
C art compared to other AI image
generation tools is that you can click
on a picture that you like and then you
can click on try and now you're in the
studio to make images we got the exact
same prompt from before and if we just
click on generate and you get almost the
exact same picture the cool thing about
cart is that they use opensource models
so you can click here and you can use a
bunch of different ones so we could go
epic realism and we can add a Laura
which is essentially a fine-tuning step
so you can create exactly the image that
you want to create you can change the
image quality image mode image size and
even toggle on this restore faces to get
even better faces but how free is it
really well the generation that we just
did with two images cost four credits
and we get 200 right now as you can see
this is refreshed and reset daily which
means that you can actually generate a
bunch of images it also includes these
Advanced tools like image to image or
control net as well as these tools like
face swap and upscale number two
playground AI much like C art they have
the gallery right here on the front page
that enables you to create a bunch of
cool images similarly to see art you can
click on the image you can either copy
The Prompt which has a prompt and a
negative prompt or you can just click on
the remix it brings us into the
generation Studio where you can see the
filter that they used nii which is an
anime type style you can see all the
other styles that they have here as well
what makes playground AI difference is
that you can change from board to Canvas
and I really like the canvas however let
me show you board first let's just apply
a filter like Proto Vision give it a
prompt and then you can also have
exclude from image you can do image to
image but I'm just going to do text to
image now this one is using the model
stable diffusion XL and here you can see
the first generation now the reason that
I like the canvas the most is when I
click on it you can now see that we open
in this grid flow I can just write a
prompt and then I can actually select
how many images I want I'm going to
select four but you can go all the way
up to 16 if you have the pro version
click on generate and now you can see
the first images now you can move it
around just like it's a reference
reference image and you can even delete
the ones you don't like and now you can
actually just click on this image and
select the thing in the top image to
image and we can generate again and we
get more iterations of the same image so
now you can just move them around the
canvas keep generating images all in
this space and if you're wondering how
free is it you can actually create 500
images per day and use the images
commercially there's no water mark or
anything the main shortcoming of
playground AI is the customization as
you can see right out of the box using
stable diffusion with some of these
filters the face can sometimes be a
little bit wonky so it takes a little
bit more prompting and customization to
get exactly what you're looking for
number three Bing image
Creator if you're struggling to make
content this AI tool can help you it's
called content.com and it can generate
contents 10 times faster just click on
the start free trial now that I'm on the
inside I'm going to use the AI chat to
get some good creative ideas ideas
here's the prompt pause the video if you
want I asked it for survival Niche best
tent for winter camping such a good SEO
keyword or even best water filters for
emergency preparedness this is really
good I'm going to do the best backpacks
for extended hiking trips The Next Step
I'm going to use the SEO article
template put my keyboard in there let's
make it a th000 words and click on
generate article it just gave me the
entire outline and I'm just going to
click on on confirm paragraphs and the
entire article is written now we can
click on AI art click on text to image
and we can generate some images for the
article let's generate the image we got
this image and this beautiful image then
we have ai translation into all these
different languages so you can reach a
bigger audience so click the link in the
description down below to check out
content.com to create content 10 times
faster thank you so much to content.com
for sponsoring this section of the video
number three Bing image Creator powered
by Dolly 3 the big win here is that they
actually use Dolly 3 which is a great
image generator that'll probably give
you better images right off the bat for
example if I prompted biking woman with
an ax at the top of the mountain this is
the result that we're getting let's
refine The Prompt and here we got the
second result which does not look bad
right off the bat when I opened my
account I think I had 100 boosts and
each image or four images that I
generate uses one of these boosts so by
making these two prompts I just used two
boosts from their website it says you'll
begin with 25 boosts upon signing up and
continue to receive up to 15 boosts
weekly another con of the big image
generator is that you can't actually do
image to image or if I like this content
here I can't click like make another one
for me I just have to prompt so that's
not that good the reason I love doll A3
inside of chat gbt is that you can
actually say make it brighter or make it
more colorful you can't actually do that
here so alternatively you can always go
to bing.com and click on the chat here
you can actually create an image that
uses the same method and you can also
add can you make it brighter and then it
will actually make them brighter so this
is the best way to get Dolly 3 for free
number four Adobe Firefly obviously
Adobe is huge into image generation as
well as they're adding generative fill
in Photoshop but to generate images for
free you can just click on the text to
image generation and you'll step inside
of a little Gallery where you can take a
look at what other people have done what
that's the cutest thing ever and if I
click on it you can see we actually end
up in the generations that they have
done as well as the prompt and the style
that they've used They just added a new
Firefly image to Beta And you can select
between the model version 2 or one we
can select the aspect ratio select
content type photo or art with a visual
intensity can also toggle this one Auto
style strength we can match the style of
an image we already have add some of
these effects so you can see layered
paper synth wve painting and add color
lighting composition there's some
advanced settings as well like exclude
from image let's try the layered paper
and click on generate and there you have
it as you can see the image quality is
very good in Firefly as well as you can
use generative fill text effect
generative recolor 3D to image and text
to Vector now how free is it you can see
I have 24 generative credits left and
you can see that you use one credit
while doing any of these tasks it says
on their website that if you have a free
plan you'll receive a plan specific
number of monthly generative AI
Creations so what happens if I use all
my generative credits well if you use
the free creative plan you actually need
to subscribe to a new paid plan to
continue creating firefight image and
they say if you are on a plan you don't
actually have any limits right now so
yes Firefly is great however for free
not my favorite number five
leonardo2 here is how it looks like on
the inside you can see the featured
models in the top here as well as if you
go to the right you can see some RPG
models that look absolutely awesome the
same with recent Creations you can
always scroll down and see what other
people have made here as well and people
are liking the images similarly to the
other ones when you click on an image
you can see the prompt here you can see
the pipeline and the model and you also
get these related images that look
similar now there's three things you can
do you can either do image to image you
can remix this with almost everything
just generate with this model now I'm
just going to click on remake and as you
can see we get the entire prompt here as
well as the model and all the settings
now I actually want to change into the
Alchemy V2 that just launched four
images and I'll click on generate you
see this will use 20 tokens and I
started with 150 you can see that this
resets in 17 hours and it may take up to
an hour to update your tokens here where
the images that we created and we
actually got like a non safe for work
one and you can see that the images are
just stunning super high quality very
detailed very cool style easy to make so
you can see why a lot of people go to
Leonardo for me it has a little bit too
little credits for the free plan you can
do like if you just do two images or one
image it takes less credits but still
you will be able to only do about seven
per day so if you only generate a few
iterations every single time this might
be a good fit for you number six Blue
Willow here you can see that you can try
the AI artwork generator for free write
your prompt here and generate now you
can see we're on the inside and here you
can see the image I got this image by
using the Blue Willow V4 model and I'm
not that happy with the result let's try
another prompt and you see that this
will cost 0.99 credits and we only
started with 10 credits here you can see
the image it generated and I'm surprised
last time I checked Blue Willow was a
really good software and now it's at the
bottom of the list it's funny that you
can pay to use Dolly 2 no way number
seven dream studio. a by stability AI so
if you don't know who stability AI is is
the creators of stable diffusion the
model that a lot of the other ones that
we just looked at is using so they've
tried to make this tool to make it a lot
easier for you I'm going to click on get
started now that I'm on the inside you
can see the basics of it style you can
choose between all of this different
styles let's try pixel art this time you
prompt it and a negative prompt you can
also upload upload an image to create
variations settings to create the
resolution different some advanced
settings like prompt strength and seed
and then we click on dream here are the
generations right off the bat using the
sdxl V1 let's try the anime style I
really like how this one turned out
let's try photographic as well and here
are the results this one turned out
really well as you can see the dude is
looking sharp but I don't know what's
happening down here the price is 7.2
credits per dream I started with 120 on
their website it says all new users are
granted 25 free credits upon creating an
account and once they are depleted they
have to buy additional credits you can
see $10 will give you 1,000 credits
which can give you about 5,000 images
which is fair but if you want it free
forever do one of those that refills
themsel every day which is technically
free forever which one do you want to
sign up with comment down below I've
also included links to all of them so
you can just click the description don't
forget to check out our sponsor in the
description below and if you want to see
