What’s new with DALL-E 3 for ChatGPT free users?
In September last year, OpenAI launched DALL-E 3, offering advanced image generation capabilities that quickly became popular among paid users. A standout feature of DALL-E 3 is its ability to generate images based on detailed prompts created by ChatGPT. For instance, if you’re stuck on how to describe an image you want, ChatGPT can craft a descriptive prompt for you, making the process smoother and more accessible. As of now, free users can tap into this technology, though they’re limited to creating two images per day.
This update makes it easier for everyone, regardless of their subscription level, to explore and create. DALL-E 3’s integration with ChatGPT means users can leverage AI’s creativity to produce unique visuals, whether for fun, work, or just to see what’s possible.
