OpenAI has introduced the latest iteration of its text-to-image tool, known as Dall-E 3. This cutting-edge version harnesses the capabilities of its widely acclaimed AI chatbot, ChatGPT, to enhance prompt-based image generation.
Scheduled for release in October through the API, Dall-E 3 will be exclusively available to ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise clientele. Users will have the ability to submit image requests and fine-tune prompts through interactive conversations with ChatGPT.
The company asserts that Dall-E 3 possesses the remarkable capacity to transform intricate requests into extraordinarily intricate and precise images, marking a significant advancement in AI-driven visual content creation.
OpenAI has also taken substantial steps to incorporate enhanced safeguards within the tool, thereby curtailing its potential to produce content of a violent, adult, or hateful nature. Furthermore, the tool has been equipped to decline requests for images featuring public figures identified by name or those imitating the artistic style of living artists.
OpenAI recognizes the importance of creators' autonomy and permits them to opt out of utilizing their work for the training of future text-to-image tools, ensuring control over their creative contributions.
OpenAI's endeavors to develop text-to-image AI technology face competition from various quarters, with companies like Alibaba's Tongyi Wanxiang, Midjourney, and Stability AI actively refining their image generation models.
However, concerns linger in the domain of AI-generated imagery. In a notable legal development, a Washington D.C. court ruled in August that artworks generated entirely by AI, devoid of human input, could not be eligible for copyright protection under U.S. law.
OpenAI is also grappling with multiple legal challenges. A consortium representing American authors, including prominent figures like John Grisham and "Game of Thrones" author George R.R. Martin, has filed a lawsuit against the AI pioneer, alleging the unauthorized use of their literary works for training ChatGPT, their AI chatbot.
