With a rising number of AI image generators, you may be able to see bearded women, six-legged reindeer, and even humans driving a car with their heads poking out of the windshield, but generating such absurd works doesn't make a tool stand out.
The internet has been flashing with numerous text-to-image generators since the first AI generators hit the market in 2022, including DALL-E, MidJourney, and Stable Diffusion.
While these AI models from trend-setter tech giants have garnered a treasure trove of traction, Google Gemini surpassed them in various benchmarks and proves the best AI image generator.

How Gemini is better than other AI models
The most significant aspect of Google Gemini is that it can also be installed on an Android phone, unlike DALL-E and MidJourney which remain exclusive to web versions only.
Another common reason for which Gemini has been cherished the most is that it's way simpler to use and generates nearly the replica of what you have in mind, all with just a few text prompts.
Its navigational simplicity can be gauged from a user merely opening the Gemini app on his phone, typing a prompt, and getting an image pop-up in a few seconds that follow.
What further stretches the dividing line between Gemini and other AI image generators is that Gemini is prohibited by Google to produce images involving children or identifiable people like celebrities.
Similarly, the AI tool is designed not to respond to requests to generate violent, sexual, or disturbing content.
