Google's Vertex AI Is Great For Image Editing
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We do a lot of image generation for our various areas of marketing (website, social media, graphics for conferences/booth giveaways), and we love using Vertex AI's image editor. We've used other AI image generators in the past (such as Microsoft's and Chat GPT's), but we've found Vertex to be a lot more accurate with less amount of mistakes.
Pros
- Image Editing (especially with minute details)
- Retained Image Crispness around edges of AI's additions
- Amount of menu options Google provides in it's UI
- Google's training modules on Vertex is actually really helpful
Cons
- It's expensive to use. The cost could be a bit lower for tokens.
- The Vertex AI Search isn't bulletproof and sometimes is wrong
- To really master their UI, it does take some training. There's a lot of options.
Return on Investment
- It has helped speed up the process of getting the exact image we need for our various marketing initiatives.
- Images are stored in our Google Cloud, which we use in our business anyways (makes it super easy to find/share)
- Google's security is always top notch. Even though it's just images, we still need the confidentiality of our creations.
