Meet Playground. Not affiliated with Apple Intelligence’s Image Playground, this site offers a variety of AI image generation possibilities, many of which are free. While there is a paid “Pro” option, users can generate mind-blowing images for free.

When DALL-E first launched, it lived on its standalone website; since then, it has moved to ChatGPT. The move came with many benefits, including being able to ask the AI chatbot for an image you want in the same interface where you're already chatting about something else, thereby eliminating the need for constant context switching.

OpenAI spokesperson Taya Christianson told TechCrunch that all of its images include metadata indicating they were made by ChatGPT. Christianson added that OpenAI “takes action” when users violate its usage policies, and that it’s “always learning” from real-world use and feedback.
