Overview

• OpenAI's GPT-4o now supports image generation directly within ChatGPT, using text prompts to create visuals in styles such as Studio Ghibli, The Simpsons, and Frozen.
• The feature is live for Plus, Pro, Team, Free, and Sora users, with Enterprise and Edu access planned for future rollout.
• Users can create high-quality photos, illustrations, logos, and infographics, with options for transparent backgrounds and precise lighting and texture control.
• While there are no official presets for some styles, users can approximate aesthetics like Studio Ghibli by crafting detailed prompts describing the desired elements.
• Concerns about the energy consumption of AI-generated images persist, with studies estimating that creating one image uses as much electricity as half a smartphone charge.
