This, by providing practical and new creator tools for Microsoft 365, Microsoft Edge, and Bing.

Microsoft Designer
This is a graphic design app for Microsoft 365. It is designed to help create stunning social media posts, digital postcards, graphics, and more. Microsoft Designer is AI-powered, allowing you to instantly generate numerous designs with little to no effort.
Designer takes off the time-consuming task of building cards or social media posts from scratch, enabling users to start with an idea of their own and let AI do the rest. It is built in Power Point, using AI to make template suggestions as you go with multiple options to choose from.

Image Creator from Microsoft Bing
Sometimes, creators can spend hours looking for the right visuals in multiple graphic stocks, before being able to start working on the design, video, or whatever visual you are working on. Image Creator is a website that allows you to create images that don’t exist (yet) based on your or your client’s specific requirements.
Using the same DALL-E 2 generator technology that Microsoft Designer does. It is as easy as typing in the description of what you need with some context such as, location, activity, or art style, and Image Creator will come up with something for you.
