Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been making waves in various industries, but its impact on the field of image generation is particularly noteworthy. A recent article by Everypixel Journal delves into the statistics of AI-generated images, revealing some staggering numbers and trends. The article, authored by Alina Valyaeva, provides key insights into the volume of images generated by different AI algorithms and platforms.

Key Higlights

• Unprecedented Scale: AI has generated as many images as photographers have taken in 150 years. More than 15 billion images have been created using text-to-image algorithms since last year alone.
• Daily Generation: Since the launch of DALL-E 2, an average of 34 million images are being created per day.
• Rapid Growth: Adobe Firefly, integrated into Adobe Photoshop, reached 1 billion images created in just three months since its launch.
• User Base: Midjourney has the largest user base among image generation platforms with 15 million users, while Adobe Creative Cloud has 30 million users.
• Open Source Dominance: Approximately 80% of the images (12.59 billion) were created using models based on Stable Diffusion, which is open source.

The statistics reveal the enormous scale and rapid growth of AI-generated images. As AI continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how these numbers change and what implications they will have for various industries, including art, media, and technology.
