Google Imagen 2

>>geox+(OP)
This post has more information: https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/ai-machine-learning/i...

I can't figure out how to try this thing. The closest I got was this sentence:

"To get started with Imagen 2 on Vertex AI, find our documentation or reach out to your Google Cloud account representative to join the Trusted Tester Program."

I think the process is

1. Go to console.cloud.google.com

2. Go to model garden

3. Search imagegeneration

4. End up at https://console.cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/publishers/google...

And for whatever reason that is where the documentation is.

Sample request

    curl -X POST \
        -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
        -H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
        -d @request.json \
        "https://us-central1-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/us-central1/publishers/google/models/imagegeneration@002:predict"

Sample request.json

    {
      "instances": [
        {
          "prompt": "TEXT_PROMPT"
        }
      ],
      "parameters": {
        "sampleCount": IMAGE_COUNT
      }
    }

Sample response

    {
      "predictions": [
        {
          "bytesBase64Encoded": "BASE64_IMG_BYTES",
          "mimeType": "image/png"
        },
        {
          "mimeType": "image/png",
          "bytesBase64Encoded": "BASE64_IMG_BYTES"
        }
      ],
      "deployedModelId": "DEPLOYED_MODEL_ID",
      "model": "projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/us-central1/models/MODEL_ID",
      "modelDisplayName": "MODEL_DISPLAYNAME",
      "modelVersionId": "1"
    }

Disclaimer: Haven't actually tried sending a request...

I can confirm that month ago there was a bug where you could try Imagen just via changing JS variables (but it didn't work for video generation).

Of course it became immediately obvious to me why the model isn't public. It's just not as good as advertised, that's why. Google should stop deceiving the public.
