Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating images. In one aspect, a method includes: receiving an input text prompt including a sequence of text tokens in a natural language; processing the input text prompt using a text encoder neural network to generate a set of contextual embeddings of the input text prompt; and processing the contextual embeddings through a sequence of generative neural networks to generate a final output image that depicts a scene that is described by the input text prompt.
