OpenAI announced the third version of its generative AI visual art platform DALL-E, which now lets users use ChatGPT to create prompts and includes more safety options.
DALL-E converts text prompts to images. But even DALL-E 2 got things wrong, often ignoring specific wording. The latest version, OpenAI researchers said, understands context much better.
A new feature of DALL-E 3 is integration with ChatGPT. By using ChatGPT, someone doesn’t have to come up with their own detailed prompt to guide DALL-E 3; they can just ask ChatGPT to come up with a prompt, and the chatbot will write out a paragraph (DALL-E works better with longer sentences) for DALL-E 3 to follow. Other users can still use their own prompts if they have specific ideas for DALL-E.
This connection with the chatbot, OpenAI said, allows more people to create AI art because they don’t have to be very good at coming up with a prompt.
OpenAI, possibly to avoid lawsuits, will also allow artists to opt their art out of future versions of text-to-image AI models. Creators can submit an image that they own the rights to and request its removal in a form on its website. A future version of DALL-E can then block results that look similar to the artist’s image and style. Artists sued DALL-E competitors Stability AI and Midjourney, along with art website DeviantArt, for allegedly using their copyrighted work to train their text-to-image models.
