ChatGPT’s new image generation is unreal – here are 16 jaw-dropping examples
When OpenAI teased a surprise livestream on Tuesday, I was certain it wasn't exactly a surprise. Instead, we were probably looking at some sort of pre-planned damage control. The entire world knew DeepSeek V3 was going to be released this month, and the Chinese AI firm made it available this week to challenge ChatGPT and other competitors.
I expected OpenAI to mention release dates for GPT-4.5, which is now being tested, and GPT-5, which should be available next month. This would be enough to steer the conversation away from DeepSeek, at least for a while. While OpenAI did not end up talking about its next-gen AI models, I was right about the distraction.
ChatGPT's new GPT-4o image generation is available around the world, and ChatGPT has gone viral on social media as a result. You can find countless examples online of AI-generated images with a single prompt in ChatGPT, and the results are insane.
These look to be image-generation capabilities that exceed what Dall-E could already do inside ChatGPT. The AI can finally generate written text, which used to be a telltale sign of AI-generated content, whether it was photos or videos.
The AI produces fast results, and, as you'll see below, it has no problem using the faces of celebrities or copyrighted content. What I'm getting at is that the ChatGPT image powers are too good for its own good. Prepare for an internet where fake images can go viral overnight and where bad actors will abuse these AI features to mislead the masses.
As you might have guessed by now, the ChatGPT-created images have no visible signs that they were generated with AI. There's no watermark, so most people will not be able to tell them apart from real photos. OpenAI marks them in metadata, but that's useless. Here are some examples.
