DALL.E 3 image editing has revolutionized the way we approach creative design. The recent update from OpenAI introduces a user-friendly interface that enables users to edit images directly within ChatGPT across various platforms. This feature allows for natural language text editing, where users can simply highlight an area and request changes using everyday language. The video demonstrates this by adding bows to an image of poodles, showcasing the AI’s ability to understand and execute the task with impressive accuracy.
The concept of natural language-based image editing isn’t new to the AI space, but DALL.E 3’s implementation is comprehensive and user-centric. It offers a dedicated aspect ratio setting and provides examples of different art styles, helping users understand how the AI works. The video illustrates this by generating a frog riding a bicycle and then editing the image to add a top hat, remove a butterfly, and even introduce a whimsical monster, all through simple text commands.
While DALL.E 3 excels in adding details like hats or fixing hands, it struggles with text generation, suggesting users might prefer specialized tools like Idiogram AI for text-heavy edits. The video also highlights the importance of getting the initial prompt as close to the desired outcome as possible, as the AI performs best when making minor adjustments rather than overhauling an entire image.
OpenAI has made strides in accessibility by allowing users to interact with ChatGPT without an account, relying on cookies for chat history. The video concludes by mentioning open-source alternatives for image editing, like BrushNet, which operates locally on users’ computers and is free as long as the system can handle AI image generation.
