Hey everyone, I've been curious lately if ChatGPT can actually generate pictures of people or if it's just good for text. Anyone got any experience with this or knows how it works? Would appreciate some insights!

I've tried asking ChatGPT to generate images but all it does is describe them in words. So no actual pictures from this tool sadly.
Isn't there some AI that can generate people that don't exist? I think that's separate from ChatGPT for sure.
I heard some folks use a combo of ChatGPT and image AIs to make stories and then images for their characters. Kinda creative!
If you want AI to generate pictures of people, tools like Midjourney or Stable Diffusion are your go-to. ChatGPT just doesn’t have that capability atm.
You can use some AI art generators that are specially trained for images, ChatGPT isn't designed for that.
Honestly, ChatGPT is great at stories but if you want images, you gotta hop over to those AI art generators.
So basically, ChatGPT is amazing for chatting and writing, but for pictures of people, you gotta use something else.
I wonder if in the future they’ll combine ChatGPT’s text skills with image generation in one app. That’d be sick!
One cool thing though is you can use ChatGPT to help script prompts for image generators, makes the whole process smoother.
You can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools if you wanna stay updated on which AI image generators are hot right now.
Would be awesome if ChatGPT could generate images directly, but maybe that’s what the future holds!
Someone mentioned DALL-E and I've seen it makes some pretty realistic faces sometimes. Worth trying if you want images of people.
I tried to upload a photo and ask ChatGPT to edit it, but it just can't. So image editing is out too.
I don't think ChatGPT can make images, it's mostly for text stuff. For pictures, you might wanna check out DALL-E or something similar.
