The original classic DALLᐧE 2

Features

DALL·E 2

DALL·E 2 is an AI system that creates realistic images and art from natural language descriptions. It can combine concepts, attributes, and styles to generate original content based on text prompts.

Capabilities

  • Creates original images based on detailed text descriptions. For example, typing “a photorealistic image of an astronaut riding a horse” will generate various interpretations of this concept.

Technical Details

  • Launched in 2022 as the successor to DALL·E (2021)
  • 4x greater resolution than the original DALL·E
  • Significantly improved photorealism and caption matching
  • Based on CLIP latents (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training)

Safety Features

  • Content filtering to prevent generation of violent, hateful, or adult images
  • Restrictions on photorealistic generations of real individuals’ faces
  • Content policy prohibiting violent, adult, or political content generation
  • Automated and human monitoring systems

Limitations

  • Cannot generate all types of content due to safety restrictions
  • Subject to content policy restrictions
  • Other limitations documented in the risks and limitations documentation
