OpenAI Unveils New and Improved AI Image Generator: Dall-E 3
OpenAI has a new version of its AI image generator, dubbed Dall-E 3, which it says can handle "significantly more nuance and detail" than Dall-E 2.
"Modern text-to-image systems have a tendency to ignore words or descriptions, forcing users to learn prompt engineering," OpenAI says. "Dall-E 3 represents a leap forward in our ability to generate images that exactly adhere to the text you provide."
This includes creating renderings of even the most minute details of the text prompt, and appropriately spacing them between other elements of the scene, such as the moon above the street in the image below.
Dall-E 3 promises to more accurately generate human hands, a task that has eluded many AI image generators. Competitor Midjourney made a similar announcement last month, with a new feature that allows users to request edits to only a portion of the image (i.e. "Remove one finger").
OpenAI also announced plans to integrate Dall-E 3 with ChatGPT Plus in the coming seeks. By combining the chatbot's language skills with the image generator, the idea is to create even more precise images with customization opportunities.
"When prompted with an idea, ChatGPT will automatically generate tailored, detailed prompts for Dall-E 3 that bring your idea to life," OpenAI says. "If you like a particular image, but it’s not quite right, you can ask ChatGPT to make tweaks with just a few words."
Dall-E 2 is currently not free—OpenAI charges a small fee for image "credits"—and ChatGPT Plus costs $20 per month. The only major AI chatbot that offers image generation for free currently is Microsoft's Bing Chat AI. Bing Chat also runs on OpenAI's powerful GPT-4 model.
