OpenAI on Thursday announced that ChatGPT now allows users to create up to two images per day for free, with no subscription required. The images are generated by OpenAI's image generation model DALL-E 3.

"Just ask ChatGPT to create an image for a slide deck, personalize a card for a friend, or show you what something looks like," said OpenAI, in a post shared on X.

Additional image generation with DALL-E 3 continues to require a ChatGPT Plus subscription, priced at $20 per month.

Apple previously announced that ChatGPT will be integrated into Siri across iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia starting later this year. Siri will be able to show ChatGPT answers directly in response to questions and other prompts, but the user will have to grant permission every single time they want to use ChatGPT via Siri.

ChatGPT will also be available within Apple's system-wide Writing Tools feature, allowing users to quickly generate text and images. Apple said ChatGPT will be powered by OpenAI's latest GPT-4o model on its software platforms.

iPhone, iPad, and Mac users will be able to use ChatGPT without creating an account, and this will presumably now include the ability to generate up to two images per day for free. ChatGPT Plus subscribers will be able to connect their accounts to access paid features on these devices, including additional image generation.

Apple ensured that OpenAI will not store ChatGPT requests made from its devices, and it said users' IP addresses will be obscured.

Serious question. Why is chatGPT so expensive? Are these guys serious?

20 a month for a search engine? Wtf? And that’s on top of you needing an account and they monetizing all your info and your queries

It is not a search engine and should not be used as one. Most people totally misunderstand LLM's and what they do. They aren't for searching factual information, they transform text and generate new text based on trained data.

Correct. Perplexity, which I use, is search engine.

It will be soon. "SearchGPT" will be their new search engine product offering when it is released in a couple of months.

Image generation is plagiarism. This stuff was built on art theft and needs to be banned, and they need to be forced to compensate the artists they stole from.

You need to show us an example. Using ideas from other artists is not "plagiarism". To be plagiarism you must use someone else's work and call it your own. There are some legal definitions of how close you can copy before you cross the line and there is also the concept of fair use.

Please show us instances of actual plagiarism. (I am not saying plagiarism does not exist but only that you will not make your point without showing that plagiarism is common)

I think it has to do with the requested style. "felt" is expected to be very simplified and cartoonish. It would be interesting to ask for another style, such as "photo realist".

But the bigger problem is that these images are just fluff that adds nothing to your presentation. I call it "junk art" that only adds color and takes up time but contributes nothing.

You can in fact use an LLM like ChaptGPT to do searches. The way it works is the LLM takes your search terms and improves it and then sends it off to Google. Then the results of the search are sent to the LLM with instructions like "please list and summarize the 10 most relevant hits after removing sponsored content"

This is very easy to do, you can even do it yourself using even modest programming skills.

Gen-AI isn't anything that can generate something from nothing, it has to be trained on data. That data needs to be provided from somewhere. I don't have specific examples, but scraping the internet for millions of images to use without artists' permission is plagiarism and theft.

Isn't that just like learning how to draw, paint, photograph? Where do we make the distinction? There are whole schools built on teaching (or training) people in these fields, based on the works of others within them.

First of all, if the work is properly attributed then by definition it can not possibly be plagiarism. So even if I make a dead-on photographic copy of the Mona Lisa it is not plagiarism if I acknowledge that the work is by Di Vinci.

AI art could be plagiarism if a person fails to give credit to ChapGPT and claims he painted the image himself. Even if the image is 100% not like any other on Earth.

This is not theft by any legal definition of the term. For example what if you go to art school and study art history and then look at the work of many artists over the centuries? Are you not being trained using the work of others? You can argue that those works you looked at were "in public" the same applies to ChatGPT.

Again with no examples, you are just "making stuff up". Or to use Ng's example "worrying about overpopulation on Mars". In other words a problem that might not ever exist. It would be so easy to make your point if you had an actual example of plagiarism.

All that said, it is possible to force ChapGPT to make artwork that is VERY MUCH like a copywritten work. It will do it if asked. But how is this different from simply using a camera to make a copy? Also, either way, asking GPTchat to make the copy or using your camera is not plagiarism if you properly acknowledge the source.

But all search engines will aid in plagiarism if you askit something like "Find an image of Micky Mouse as drawn by Walt Disney". The artest did not authorize this search. He has been dead for decades. The images would be unquestioned plagiarism if you claimed to have created them. AI art is not different from a simple Google search.
