ChatGPT no longer needs the separate DALL-E to generate images – but the feature is proving so popular that the company has already had to increase limitations. In a post on X this week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman wrote that the company was temporarily placing rate limits because “our GPUs are melting.”
Earlier this week, ChatGPT began rolling out GPT-4o image generation, available inside ChatGPT rather than using OpenAI’s DALL-E. The latest update to the image generator makes steps forward in some of the key issues with using generative AI for images, including creating more realistic photos, better text rendering, and keeping subsequent generations consistent when creating a series.
