OpenAI has officially discontinued its pioneering AI image generator, DALL-E 2, after two years of operation. This tool, once celebrated for its groundbreaking capabilities in digital image creation, helped forge new friendships among early testers and sparked immense creativity. The decision to shut down DALL-E 2 marks the end of an era for the AI tool and paves the way for future upgrades and developments in AI-powered image editing tools. Additionally, OpenAI is no longer accepting new customers for this service as it transitions to more advanced offerings.
