DALL-E is an artificial intelligence system that can create images from text descriptions. It is developed by OpenAI, a research company that aims to create and ensure the safe use of artificial intelligence. DALL-E is based on GPT-3, a powerful language model that can generate text for various tasks and domains. DALL-E uses a similar neural network architecture, but it is trained to generate images instead of text, using a large dataset of text-image pairs. DALL-E can produce original, realistic, and diverse images for almost any topic or style. It can also manipulate existing images by editing or expanding them according to natural language instructions. Some examples of DALL-E’s capabilities are:

• Creating anthropomorphized versions of animals and objects, such as a snail made of harp or an avocado-shaped armchair.
• Combining unrelated concepts in plausible ways, such as a giraffe wearing a suit or a baby radish in a tutu walking a dog.
• Rendering text in different fonts, colors, and backgrounds, such as the word “openai” written on a store front or the word “hello” in rainbow letters.
• Applying transformations to existing images, such as adding or removing elements, changing colors, or cropping and resizing.

DALL-E is named after the artist Salvador Dali and the character WALL-E from the Pixar movie. It is part of OpenAI’s vision to create artificial intelligence that can benefit humanity in positive and creative ways.
