This error occurs when the AI provider fails to generate an image.
It can arise due to the following reasons:

- The model failed to generate a response.
- The model generated an invalid response.

## Properties

- `message`: The error message (optional, defaults to `'No image generated.'`).
- `calls`: Results from the underlying image model calls, including generated images, provider metadata, response metadata, warnings, and usage (optional).
- `responses`: Metadata about the image model responses, including timestamp, model, and headers (optional).
- `cause`: The cause of the error. You can use this for more detailed error handling (optional).

## Checking for this Error

You can check if an error is an instance of `AI_NoImageGeneratedError` using:

```typescript
import { generateImage, NoImageGeneratedError } from 'ai';

try {
  await generateImage({ model, prompt });
} catch (error) {
  if (NoImageGeneratedError.isInstance(error)) {
    console.log('NoImageGeneratedError');
    console.log('Cause:', error.cause);
    console.log('Responses:', error.responses);

    for (const call of error.calls ?? []) {
      console.log('Provider metadata:', call.providerMetadata);
      console.log('Warnings:', call.warnings);
      console.log('Usage:', call.usage);
    }
  }
}
```
