OpenAI teases DALL-E 3, which can be summoned and controlled using ChatGPT, and plans to make the tool available to ChatGPT+ and enterprise customers in October
OpenAI is offering an early look at DALL-E 3, the next version of its image generation tool.

Context & Ripple Effects
DALL-E 3 extends OpenAI’s earlier move from a research-preview DALL-E 2 toward a more capable image-generation product. The notable shift is distribution: image creation is being placed inside the ChatGPT experience rather than treated solely as a standalone model interface.
ChatGPT Plus and enterprise customers are positioned to create and direct images through the same conversational interface they use for text, reducing the handoff between prompting and image generation.
OpenAI gains a new feature to differentiate paid ChatGPT tiers, while enterprise availability makes safety and access controls part of the product rollout.
Second-order effects
Competing AI assistants and image-generation products face pressure to make visual generation easier to invoke within their primary chat or work interfaces, rather than requiring separate tools.
For paid customers, iterative prompting and later editing support can shift more early-stage visual ideation into ChatGPT, increasing the value of an integrated subscription over a point image tool.
Third-order effects
If multimodal features continue to be delivered through a single assistant interface, AI product competition may center increasingly on workflow integration and subscription bundles rather than on isolated model capabilities.
Enterprise adoption will make governed access and mitigation practices a durable part of generative-media commercialization, because broad distribution raises the stakes of model behavior and user controls.
The trend: This is an early example of generative media moving from standalone experimentation into subscription-based, workflow-native AI assistants.
DALL-E 3 announced: https://openai.com/... The examples are for sure cherry-picked, so we will see, but they are WAY better than what I get from SD or DALL-E 2. — But most importantly, addressing all criticisms: — Claims of no problem with fingers and spatial relationships. …
here is dalle 3, which imo is quite amazing: https://openai.com/... it will ramp to all chatgpt+ users over the next couple of weeks. fantastic work by @model_mechanic (head of dall-e), @neobjb @gabeeeegoooh @jingli911 (the other lead dalle ICs), and the entire team. [image]
Huge news: @OpenAI DALL-E 3 will soon available in ChatGPT Plus and ChatGPT Enterprise 🤯 This latest DALL-E model is absolutely incredible, I have been blown away by what it is able to generate. [image]
Our new text-to-image model, DALL·E 3, can translate nuanced requests into extremely detailed and accurate images. Coming soon to ChatGPT Plus & Enterprise, which can help you craft amazing prompts to bring your ideas to life: https://openai.com/... [image]
DALL·E 3 is ready! It's able to understand subtle nuance & follow prompts containing great detail. Will be available to all ChatGPT Plus & Enterprise users over upcoming weeks. https://openai.com/... [image]
Side-by-sides of DALL•E 3 and Midjourney Since Midjourney currently doesn't support text (that's coming in the v6 update) I removed the text call-outs from the prompt when running in MJ. Here's 7 comparisons:
I think DALL·E 3 is not just a stance against MidJourney. It's actually a sneak peak of the upcoming, epic battle of massively multimodal LLMs, against DeepMind Gemini. Quote: “DALL·E 3 is built natively on ChatGPT”. This is the key phrase. DALL·E 3's extraordinary language align…
Cool - Dalle 3 very close. OpenAI had the lead with Dalle 2 a while ago but Midjourney and even Stable Diffusion quickly surpassed it. I look forward to seeing how well this new model works.
This is interesting - I am a ChatGPT Plus subscriber and had been umming and aahing about cancelling my sub and instead getting a Midjourney one. This changes that equation
DALL·E 3 will be available next month and “delivers significant improvements over DALL·E 2 when: - generating text within an image - in human details like hands”
Really proud of my team @neonbjb @gabeeegoooh @jingli for shipping DALL·E 3 in ChatGPT and starting to get it in peoples' hands! It was a privilege working with them over the past year. It's been fun seeing how things have progressed since the first avo chair and I'm excited for.…
