ChatGPT's Studio Ghibli-style image-generation feature has received widespread attention so far and has become a viral trend — so much so that this surge in users led to unprecedented demand, with the platform reportedly adding one million users in a single hour. However, due to high demand, OpenAI’s resources got strained, so it rolled out the temporary introduction of rate limits to manage capacity challenges.
All the social media platforms got flooded with AI-animated images. This trend created a storm on the internet, leading OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to hint at an upcoming enhancement to ChatGPT's image generation capabilities via platform 'X’; he stated, "Y'all are not ready for images v2..." indicating that there are some promising improvements in the line.
Replying to the Sam Altman tweet, the OpenAI chief scientist, Lu Liu, retweeted the post, stating, "we need sleep" with a melting face.
Still, the specific details regarding the release date for “images version 2” were not disclosed yet; Sam Altman’s teaser gives a hint that OpenAI is preparing to unveil substantial improvements and new features to ChatGPT’s image-generation. As per the experts, future features could include multiple new things like refined artistic control over AI-generated images, improved customization options, and higher-resolution outputs.
As users are eagerly waiting for the “images v2” updates regarding its capabilities, OpenAI continues to innovate in AI-powered digital art creation.
