Can ChatGPT generate images? Yes it can and we’ll show you how

ChatGPT image generation

Can ChatGPT generate images? With all the various ChatGPT features and models OpenAI has announced in the past year, it's hard to keep track of what's actually live and accessible to the average user.

But if you're wondering about one of the most popular features — image generation — we're here to tell you that it's available and free to all ChatGPT users.

In August, OpenAI brought DALL-E 3, its AI image generator model, to all users with a free ChatGPT account. However, there are some limitations. ChatGPT free users can only generate two images per day. But with a paid ChatGPT Plus account, users get unlimited image generation.

Whether you pay $20 a month for a ChatGPT Plus membership, or have a free account, the process is the same. Here's how to do it.

Total Time
  • How to generate images with ChatGPT
What You Need
  • A ChatGPT account on desktop or mobile

Step 1: Create or sign in to your ChatGPT account

Go to Chatgpt.com and create an account — or log in with your existing credentials.

Step 2: Ask ChatGPT for the image you want it to generate

Starting with a prompt like "generate an image of" or "create an image of," type a description of the image you're envisioning, such as "dog chasing a tennis ball." The more descriptive the prompt, the better the results will be. So, include words like "photorealistic" or "renaissance-style" to describe the style of the image, and "chubby corgi" or "sleek greyhound" to describe what kind of dog you want it to depict.

Step 3: Ask ChatGPT follow-up requests for any adjustments

If you're not quite getting the image you want, you can give ChatGPT feedback for any adjustments. In this example, let's say we want the chubby corgi to really portray its feverish desire for the tennis ball, you can type in a prompt like "make the chubby corgi desperately frantic to catch the tennis ball. Include drool and slobber." ChatGPT will understand the context of your request, so there's no need to include the original description in the follow-up prompt.

Step 4: Download your DALL-E 3 image or keep experimenting

If you're happy with what DALL-E 3 has created, you can download the image from ChatGPT by tapping the download icon in the upper righthand corner. Otherwise, you can keep prompting ChatGPT for a different image with more detailed description.

When the clocks change for Daylight Saving Time, and why we do it at all

The clocks on our smartphones do something bizarre twice a year: One day in the spring, they jump ahead an hour, and our alarms go off an hour sooner. We wake up bleary-eyed and confused until we remember what just happened. Afterward, "Daylight Saving Time" becomes the norm for about eight months (And yes, it's called "Daylight Saving" not "Daylight Savings." I don't make the rules). Then, in the fall, the opposite happens. Our clocks set themselves back an hour, and we wake up refreshed, if a little uneasy.  Mild chaos ensues at both annual clock changes. What feels like an abrupt and drastic lengthening or shortening of the day causes time itself to seem fictional. Babies and dogs demand that their old sleep and feeding habits remain unchanged. And more consequential effects — for better or worse — may be involved as well (more on which in a minute). Changing our clocks is an all-out attack on our perception of time as an immutable law of ...

A speeding black hole is birthing baby stars across light years

Astronomers think they have discovered a supermassive black hole traveling away from its home galaxy at 4 million mph — so fast it's not doing what it's notorious for: sucking light out of the universe. Quite the opposite, possibly. Rather than ripping stars to shreds and swallowing up every morsel, this black hole is believed to be fostering new star formation, leaving a trail of newborn stars stretching 200,000 light-years through space . Pieter van Dokkum, an astronomy professor at Yale University, said as the black hole rams into gas, it seems to trigger a narrow corridor of new stars, where the gas has a chance to cool. How exactly it works, though, isn't known, said van Dokkum, who led research on the phenomenon captured by NASA 's Hubble Space Telescope accidentally. A paper on the findings was published last week in The Astrophysical Journal Letters . “What we’re seeing is the aftermath," he said in a statement . "Like the wake behind a ship, we’r...
