Canva has recently held its Canva Create live event in Sydney, Australia and announced the release of a collection of new interesting AI tools. I have been experimenting with these new tools and found them worth sharing here in Educators Technology.
Admittedly, when Canava first introduced its text to image tool, I did not have a good experience with it and found it 'primitive' compared to other AI text to image generators especially DALL-E. I thought for a while that Canva is probably losing the AI race. The recent announcements, however, proved me wrong.
Canva’s new AI tools allow users to create stunning visuals for their presentation slides, documents, websites, and other materials. If you are wondering what these new AI tools are and how to use them in your own design projects, read on to learn more.
