The tool — which quickly creates imaginative and detailed artwork via a text prompt — sparked controversy among artists who debated what DALL-E and other AI art generators like it could mean for people in creative jobs.
The AI art generator creates original images called "generations" from detailed text prompts input by a person. You can write detailed prompts such as the one above — "astronaut fish swimming in an ocean in outer space, digital art" — and specify an art style or even reference a specific artist like Vincent Van Gogh.
You can also edit "generations" on DALL-E using one of the credits the program gives you each month, and upload your own photos to create images from.

The system was trained on 680,000 hours of multilingual and multitask supervised data collected from the internet, according to OpenAI.
In examples on its product page, Whisper transcribes an almost 30-second long audio of quick-spoken text, a clip of a K-pop song, an audio clip of spoken French, and an audio clip of someone speaking with a strong accent.
Codex
Codex is an AI system that translates natural language into code. OpenAI says Codex is "most capable" in Python, but is also proficient in over a dozen coding languages like JavaScript and Swift.
The model can interpret simple commands input by a user. OpenAI says Codex is a "general-purpose programming model," which means it can be used for "essentially any programming task," although its results can vary. OpenAI said it's successfully used Codex "for transpilation, explaining code, and refactoring code."
