Apple introduces MGIE, an AI-powered image editing tool that allows users to make detailed edits using text prompts.
MGIE, developed in collaboration with the University of California, Santa Barbara, uses multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to interpret and execute user commands.
The tool is capable of performing a wide range of edits, from simple tasks like cropping and resizing to more complex modifications such as altering object shapes and adding filters.
MGIE is available as an open-source project on GitHub, with a public demo hosted on Hugging Face Spaces.
Apple's entry into the AI image editing space signals its commitment to integrating more AI features into its devices, with potential inclusion in future iPhones and iOS updates.
