Creating images with ChatGPT has become one of my favorite creative activities. I’ve spent countless hours experimenting with various prompts and styles.
What I found is that being specific about the art style you want makes all the difference. You can generate images by going to chatgpt.com and using the ChatGPT-4o model, or visit Sora for photo generation.
