OpenAI’s new image generator aims to be practical enough for designers and advertisers
1 min read
Summary
OpenAI has finally released its new image generator, which was actually announced last May but held back from release.
This offering is designed less for the creation of the increasingly popular surrealist art generated by AI, and more for practical applications in areas such as advertising and graphic design.
The new system replaces an older version, and the company has been refining the product since its announcement.
It defaults to a more practical purpose as OpenAI obviously sees this as a route to quick commercialisation of the technology, and a way to make the company’s investment in its development pay off.
This certainly seems to be a path being pursued by many in the AI art space, with companies such as Adobe and Canva also investing heavily in AI-generated art.
