About Say What You See

Say What You See turns image prompting into a visual puzzle. Study a reference image, describe what you notice, and use that description to generate a new image. The challenge is to make the result sufficiently similar to pass the current level. Google's instructions allow three attempts per image and provide tips as the difficulty increases.

The AI is part of the activity itself: your text prompts another image, rather than simply selecting a prewritten answer. This makes the experiment a way to practice observing subjects, composition, and descriptive details. It was created by artist Jack Wild with Google Arts & Culture Lab. The play link opens Google's official experiment. Our launch check reached the first level and its prompt field in Chrome; we did not submit a description or test image generation.

Where AI comes in

Google's official description says player descriptions prompt generated images, which must meet a visual similarity threshold to pass a level.
