'Microsoft Designer' is a new tool launched by the tech giant that leverages OpenAI's popular 'DALL-E 2' artificial intelligence software. While DALL-E 2 on its own is capable of generating, editing, and upscaling images, Microsoft will refocus the use case of the AI tool toward professional applications. To clarify, Microsoft Designer will be a comprehensive web tool that allows users to create presentations, posters, graphics, social media posts, and more, all through the power of AI.
Microsoft Designer also has a more detail-oriented design than the base DALL-E 2 model, with a Canva-like dashboard that allows users to start with templates and create the project that is most suited to their individual use case. Microsoft stated that Designer would remain free for a limited time, after which it will join the Office 365 subscription package, with a limited free version available to non-subscribers.
