What is the Kandinsky neural network?

Kandinsky is a family of generative models from Sber for creating and editing images. Accessible through GigaChat, you describe the task in Russian, and the model generates or refines the image. For many users in Russia, this is the primary free entry point into AI art.

Kandinsky's Possibilities

Kandinsky is aimed at a Russian-speaking audience: prompts are in Russian, integration with the Sber ecosystem, and free access via GigaChat. Its strengths include description-based generation, photo manipulation, and the 6 Image tool.
