Definition

AI image generation is the process of creating images from text descriptions using AI models like FLUX, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, or DALL-E that produce visual content from natural language prompts.

AI Image Generation explained

AI image generation uses diffusion models or transformer architectures to synthesize images from text prompts. The technology enables creators to produce custom visuals for thumbnails, social posts, marketing materials, and video scenes without photography or illustration. Models differ in style, quality, and speed: FLUX excels at photorealism, Midjourney at artistic styles, and DALL-E at prompt adherence. In video workflows, AI image generation is often the first step before image-to-video animation. Creators generate a reference image matching their vision, then animate it into a video clip. BlitzReels integrates AI image generation directly in its AI Studio for producing scene visuals.
