Microsoft has reversed its recent update to Bing's image generation system, which incorporated OpenAI's latest Dall-E model (PR16). The update sparked widespread criticism from users who noticed a significant decline in image quality compared to the previous version. Microsoft acknowledges the issue and plans to revert to the previous Dall-E model (PR13) while working on a solution for PR16.
Microsoft has had to roll back its latest update to its Bing Image Generation system, which installed the latest iteration of OpenAI’s Dall-E model, called PR16, after Bing users vociferously complained about a decline in image quality.
Since the launch of Bing Image Creator last spring, users have generated billions of images with text prompts. I'm pleased to share our latest updates to enhance your creative experience. Starting today, we’re rolling out the latest DALL-E 3 model PR16, which will create images… pic.twitter.com/3p9HsYMlr6 When Microsoft first announced the update late last year, the company promised the new model would be “twice as fast as before and with higher quality.
In response to the outcry, Ribas announced Tuesday that the company will roll back Bing’s underlying image generation model to the previous version until it can work out the quality issues with PR16. That could take a couple of weeks, however.

It started over a week ago and will take 2-3 more weeks to get to 100%.”
Microsoft and OpenAI are not alone in their image generator woes. In February 2024, Google had to temporarily disable Gemini’s image model after it began returning racially offensive depictions of people of color, such as black Nazis.
