A few thoughts on the new ChatGPT image release. (1) This changes filters. Instagram filters required custom code; now all you need are a few keywords like “Studio Ghibli” or Dr. Seuss or South Park. (2) This changes online ads. Much of the workflow of ad unit generation can now be automated, as per QT below. (3) This changes memes. The baseline quality of memes should rise, because a critical threshold of reducing prompting effort to get good results has been reached. (4) This may change books. I’d like to see someone take a public domain book from Project Gutenberg, feed it page by page into Claude, and have it turn it into comic book panels with the new ChatGPT. Old books may become more accessible this way. (5) This changes slides. We’re now close to the point where you can generate a few reasonable AI images for any slide deck. With the right integration, there should be less bullet-point only presentations. (6) This changes websites. You can now generate placeholder images in a site-specific style for any <img> tag, as a kind of visual Loren Ipsum. (7) This may change movies. We could see shot-for-shot remakes of old movies in new visual styles, with dubbing just for the artistry of it. Though these might be more interesting as clips than as full movies. (8) This may change social networking. Once this tech is open source and/or cheap enough to widely integrate, every upload image button will have a generate image alongside it. (9) This should change image search. A generate option will likewise pop up alongside available images. (10) In general, visual styles have suddenly become extremely easy to copy, even easier than frontend code. Distinction will have to come in other ways.

Claude for prompting + ChatGPT for static generation is insane. I made all of these entirely with AI. Vibe marketing is HERE.

The big milestone for movies is continuity across shots, e.g. character wearing torn shirt that retains/furthers the tears across shots, scenes and acts. Once the Continuity Gap is closed, expect a deluge of AI-generated video content.

Love all of these. Ironically, this increases the likelihood people need an agent in front of them. Curate everything further because there should be an abundance of good + hyper personalized content. The bar will get raised higher

(1) Yes (2) Some of it. Unsure how difficult is it to get very specific. (3) Maybe a new subgenre of memes. But a big part of meme culture is making it obvious you're referring to a meme, as opposed to generating a new work. (4) TBD how well books translate to visual style

Regarding turning books into illustrated stories: I once did that using old ChatGPT & Dall-E and consistency and prompt adherence was the biggest issue - looks like that's solved now with ImageGen! My original with the project was to shorten books by having ChatGPT shorten the

Ads and websites will feel this impact first—and hardest. Imagine instantly generating visuals optimized specifically for each viewer, at scale. Marketing teams mastering this early will practically print money.

might also erode the perceived value of stylistic originality, which will push creators to seek distinction through narrative depth, emotional resonance, or experiential innovation (i.e. areas AI can’t yet fully replicate).

I absolutely agree - I have spent the whole evening and a part of my night (sorry Bryan) playing with this, and it’s mind blowing. As a startup founder I feel accelerated 100x yet again the proof that we don’t need big teams to do big things anymore 🚀

First take, wait I thought programmers were going to be the first to be automated? Second take, probably can’t be productionized because it generates good concept art but by the time you get it to show YOUR product not A product, you might as well hire a designer

This doesn’t change memes. Memes are spontaneous and always created with imperfect ingredients. The meme maker says “This image doesn’t exactly fit the situation but I have made it fit through ingenuity, humour and empathy” Memes are the ultimate synthesis of creativity and

The perceptual neuroscience here is fascinating - the human visual system processes artistic styles using specialized neural networks in V4 and IT cortex (DiCarlo et al. 2012). AI is now replicating these biological style transfer mechanisms that evolved over millions of years.

When I first started, I thought I had to do everything myself. Turns out, that’s the fastest way to stay small. The sooner you build the right team, the sooner you free yourself to focus on what actually matters. What’s one hire that made your life easier?
