Indian users were amazed as OpenAI introduced native image generation in GPT-4o, allowing it to create and edit images.(X/@sama) (Also read: ChatGPT falsely claims Norwegian man killed his sons, he takes legal action against Sam Altman’s OpenAI) The update also enables users to refine and edit generated images through follow-up prompts, offering greater flexibility and customisation. OpenAI has rolled out this functionality for users on Plus, Pro, Team, and Free plans, with Enterprise and Edu plans set to receive access soon. Additionally, API integration is expected in the coming weeks. GPT-4o no longer reliant on DALL-EUnlike previous iterations, GPT-4o can generate images using its own inherent knowledge rather than relying on external diffusion models like OpenAI’s own DALL-E. However, users will still have access to DALL-E for image generation if needed. “Creating and customising images is as simple as chatting using GPT‑4o – just describe what you need, including any specifics like aspect ratio, exact colours using hex codes, or a transparent background,” OpenAI stated in its announcement. Internet reacts to GPT-4o’s abilitiesUsers quickly put GPT-4o’s new capabilities to the test, sharing their reactions on social media. Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke took to X to express his amazement after the model successfully described the anatomy of an unknown animal on his son’s t-shirt. “How is this even real?” he remarked. Indian users also joined the conversation, experimenting with the model’s ability to generate images, transform exing photos into different styles, and create user interfaces based on text prompts alone.
