An artificial intelligence (AI) system for simulating functions such as recognition, determination, and so forth of human brains by using a mechanical learning algorithm like deep learning, or the like, and an application thereof is provided. A method of providing a text-related image is provided. The method includes obtaining a text, determining at least one image related to the obtained text based on a degree of relatedness between a result of applying a first AI data recognition model to the obtained text and a result of applying a second AI data recognition model to a user-accessible image, and displaying the determined at least one image to a user.
