ChatGPT-4o has launched a powerful image generation function, and the circle of friends has also been swept by a wave of Hayao Miyazaki and the four-grid style
I tried it as soon as possible, and to be honest, it really gave me a big surprise. Compared with the previous runway, midjourney and the recent Gemini 2.0 Flash (Image Generation) Experimental, the experience is better.
I found that the images generated by GPT-4o this time are not only "good-looking", but more importantly "practical". It can generate pictures while maintaining the "prototype" , which is very important for maintaining the brand tone and image, especially for Twitter posts and article illustrations. Operations can quickly generate some pictures by themselves, which is very convenient and time-saving.
1. What’s so special about GPT-4o’s practical image generation function?
The official statement is actually very interesting:
"From the earliest cave paintings to modern infographics, humans have always used images not just for decoration, but to convey information and communicate ideas. However, although previous generative models can draw stunning scenes, they have difficulty accurately realizing the practical images we need in daily life, such as logos, flowcharts, and posters with text."
GPT-4o fills this gap: it is particularly good at accurately rendering text, accurately understanding and executing instructions, and can use its built-in knowledge base and context to generate pictures that truly meet your expectations, making image generation an accurate and powerful practical tool.
Simply put, AI-generated images in the past may have been more artistic, but the images generated by GPT-4o can really be used for work.
In addition to being more practical, the following enhanced capabilities of GPT-4o also made me feel particularly obvious in actual use:
- Accurate text rendering: The text on the picture is no longer messy. The generated text is clear and beautiful and can be used directly on posters.
- Generate images through multiple rounds of conversations: You can adjust images with GPT-4o step by step, just like chatting. Each step can help you achieve the desired effect accurately, which is very convenient.
- Detailed instruction execution capability: The details and positions of 10 or even 20 objects can be precisely controlled in one generation. In the past, it could only be done through repeated communication between designers, but now it can be done with just one sentence.
- Upload pictures to learn: You can directly upload existing design pictures. GPT-4o will analyze and learn your style, and then generate more new images of the same style to quickly enrich the dissemination materials.
- Integration with real-world knowledge: GPT-4o’s built-in powerful knowledge base allows the images it generates to be more in line with real scenes, and the realism and professionalism of the generated effects are significantly improved.
As a Web3 operator, how can I use the GPT-4o image generation function?
1) Create your own IP or mascot to quickly build a brand memory point
In the past, it was very troublesome to communicate repeatedly with designers, but now the project mascot can be quickly determined with just one instruction.
For example, I recently used one sentence: "Design a cyberpunk-style Shiba Inu mascot", and the result came out in seconds. I was very satisfied with it, and the brand sense was instantly improved.
2) Rapidly and diversifiedly generate communication materials based on existing IP
Just upload the existing IP image of the project, and GPT-4o can help you quickly generate extended materials for various themes, such as festival or hot marketing posters, at an incredibly fast speed.
3) Community stickers are generated in seconds, easily doubling activity!
I just said: "Help me generate a set of Web3 style emoticons."
4) Infographics are easy to make, even newbies can create hits!
I wanted to explain the importance of KOL marketing, so I just said: "Generate an infographic describing why KOL is very important for the promotion of Web3 projects."
5) Project comics popularize science, user education is no longer boring
In the past, no one would read text explanations of complex concepts. Now, a direct sentence: "Generate a 4-frame comic to explain what XXX is" is simple and easy to understand.
6) Quickly generate guide maps to improve user conversion rate
When operating a project, user education and popularization are often involved. If users are not explained clearly, they often give up because they do not understand. With 4o, a simple command can generate a clear and easy-to-understand guide map, which directly increases the participation rate. Let's take the steps to receive the airdrop of Particle Network, which was recently listed on Binance, as an example:
7) Quickly try out multiple styles of materials to optimize marketing effects
Use GPT-4o to quickly generate image materials of different styles, conduct A/B testing, and quickly find the most popular visual style, making marketing more accurate and efficient.
As a Web3 operator who is tortured by "design requirements" every day, GPT-4o really saves me a lot of time and energy.
This update is not simply "adding an AI drawing tool", but it truly lowers the threshold for operational creation, allowing us to focus more on strategy and creativity rather than endlessly communicating with designers or waiting for schedules.
The tools have been upgraded, and operators must keep up with the pace.
