Currently, there are many models that can directly generate images, but the models in Dify can only output text. Do we need to create a plugin tool in order to generate images?

I agree with your perspective. Multimodal output is undoubtedly a significant trend in the evolution of AI systems, and enabling models to generate both text and images represents a substantial technological leap forward. Currently, the models integrated into Dify are primarily designed for text-based outputs, and achieving native image generation capabilities would indeed require the development of specialized plugins or tools.

The incorporation of image generation not only broadens the scope of potential applications but also enhances user interaction by providing more intuitive and creative outputs. This advancement aligns with the growing demand for AI systems that can seamlessly handle multiple data modalities. As the field progresses, supporting multimodal outputs will likely become a critical milestone, driving AI platforms like Dify toward greater versatility and deeper user engagement.
