OpenAI integrates ChatGPT with the new DALL-E 3 AI system

Generative AI has come a long way since its inception last year, and OpenAI is once again making headlines with the launch of its new text-to-image AI system, DALL-E 3. As per reports, the new system will not only build upon its predecessor but will also integrate with ChatGPT.

How would the system work?

While the integration of ChatGPT may seem weird to some, especially for individuals who may already have a clear idea of the image they want to create, OpenAI states that this new integration aims to serve as a creative intermediary, allowing users to enlist ChatGPT’s assistance in writing prompts for DALL-E to generate. To demonstrate its capabilities, OpenAI’s lead head of the DALL-E team, Aditya Ramesh, asked ChatGPT to generate a prompt for designing a logo for a mountain-based ramen restaurant, and the results were impressive, with DALL-E 3 making four distinctive logo options.

Furthermore, the fact that the new DALL-E 3 system can now render intricate elements, which was a significant challenge with its predecessors and other AI systems, could usher in a new era of virtually indistinguishable AI-generated images.

Legal and Ethical Concerns

Although the new DALL-E 3 system represents a significant development, concerns about bad actors using AI to generate misinformation are higher than ever. However, OpenAI has implemented safeguards to prevent the generation of explicit or hateful images by training the AI to disregard certain words in prompts that could lead to such undesirable outcomes.

Furthermore, for artists who fear that people might use AI to copy their works, OpenAI has established a portal where artists can submit their copyrighted work through a dedicated form. This allows them to request the exclusion of their creations from DALL-E 3’s creative process, thereby safeguarding their intellectual property rights.

However, it’s important to note that although the new DALL-E 3 system will initially be rolled out to ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Enterprise users in October, followed by research labs and its API service in the fall, the company has not yet specified a date for public release.
