Summary
- Google’s Imagen 3 AI model for the Gemini app is available free to users for generating images of people.
- It had previously only been accessible to paid subscribers of the Advanced, Business or Enterprise plans.
- The update came in February 2025 and seems to be rolling out gradually to US-based users using the app in English.
- It arrives alongside Gemini 2.0 Flash, Google’s fastest Gemini model, which has also been made freely available.
- It can produce images faster and to a higher quality than usual AI image generation.
- This makes Gemini’s free offering a competitor to paid services such as Midjourney.
