ChatGPT can now create GIFs using a prompt or photo uploaded to the AI chatbot. The update, which is rolling out alongside OpenAI’s new Images 2.6 template, lets you adjust GIF animation speed, edit individual images, and share them with others.
Before this change, ChatGPT could not natively generate GIFs in one step. An example shared by the company shows how ChatGPT can generate a GIF in response to the prompt “Can you create a gif of a dancing cat?” » while also giving you the ability to change the playback speed and view it frame by frame.
Besides support for GIF creation, the Images 2.6 update also enables faster image generation in ChatGPT, OpenAI says. The company says users now generate more than 4 billion images per week through ChatGPT and its API, a jump from the 3 billion per week reported in September.
Images 2.6 is rolling out to all ChatGPT and Codex users across web, desktop, and mobile apps. OpenAI is also launching GPT-Image-2.6 Flare and Sunburst in its API for faster and better image generation.
