Testing Google’s Newest AI Writing Tool: Text FX

When Google Bard was released, I compared it side-by-side with ChatGPT, and Bard was the clear loser.

Google quietly released a new AI-powered writer named The Text FX Project. My first impression is that this one is way cooler than Bard. But, I know the slick branding doesn’t matter much. What matters is how it performs.

I’m testing Text FX as I’m writing this article. I saw one person mention the new tool was launched on LinkedIn, but haven’t seen any positive or negative reviews about it yet.

Here’s what the homepage says about the project:

TextFX is an AI experiment that uses Google’s PaLM 2 large language model. These 10 tools are designed to expand the writing process by generating creative possibilities with text and language.

Text FX was created in collaboration with Lupe Fiasco, a rapper who also teaches a class on rap theory and practice.

The 10 different Text FX tools are: Simile, Explode, Unexpect, Chain, POV, Alliteration, Acronym, Fuse, Scene, and Unfold.

Let’s test it out each of them and see what they can do!
