What does Playground AI do?

PlaygroundAI’s free AI image generation tool lets you write a prompt and have an image created from it. You can select from some of the best image generation models on the market, like Stable Diffusion and DALL-E 2. Most usefully, you can specify lots of options, including what the image size should be, which details should be excluded and even share an inspirational drawing or image.

We Love:

  • Great, easy to use UI
  • Incredibly generous pricing
  • Support for multiple models

We Hate:

  • Image generation from Stable Diffusion isn’t as good as Midjourney
  • Have to pay for DALL-E 2 image generation

Our Verdict on Playground AI

This is my favourite platform to use for generating images with AI. I find it easier to use than Midjourney offerings, although MidJourney does have superior image generation to Stable Diffusion and DALL-E 2, in my opinion. It’s hard to argue with Playground’s cost, given the insanely-generous free tier. I highly recommend this platform!

Compared Alternatives

  • MidJourney - The other big name in AI image generation, MidJourney arguably produces the best results, although it’s nowhere near as easy to use as Playground
  • DreamStudio - StabilityAI, the company behind Stability Diffusion, provide their own online interface for AI image generation. Personally, I find Playground easier to use, but I do like that DreamStudio is available as a mobile app

Use-Cases

  • AI image editing with your instructions
  • Generate images in collaboration with your friends using Playground’s real-time canvas

Insider Tips

  • I wrote this review just before lunch, so I played around with creating food images. One trick I’ve found is that using a recipe as your prompt is a great way to produce food images. They tend to be very photorealistic too!
  • PlaygroundAI have a great Youtube channel showing you how to get the best out their image generation platform. Take a look if you’re struggling to achieve the look you want
