OpenAI's Image Generator Launches for All Users, Hits 500M Active Users
OpenAI has made its new image generator, based on the GPT-4o model, accessible to all users, as announced by CEO Sam Altman on X. Previously exclusive to paying subscribers, the tool has quickly gained popularity, with a reported user limit of three images per day. The demand for the generator was so intense that it caused GPU malfunctions. Alongside this, OpenAI secured $40 billion in funding, achieving a $300 billion valuation, while ChatGPT now boasts 500 million weekly active users and 700 million monthly users. Concerns about copyright and misuse have also arisen.
