Saed News: Using the new GPT-4o model, users can turn their photos into the style of Studio Ghibli animations. This feature is easily accessible by simply uploading a photo and sending a text command.
According to the Science and Technology Service of Saed News, you may have recently seen cartoonish images created using artificial intelligence on social media. These delightful images are made possible thanks to OpenAI's new model, GPT-4o, which allows users to transform their photos into the distinctive and beloved style of Japan's Studio Ghibli. Users can easily do this by simply uploading a photo and providing a few text commands.
The rapid growth of AI-generated images is still changing the way users interact with visual content. The new trend in the style of Studio Ghibli not only revives the nostalgic feel of the studio's works but also highlights users' easy access to advanced AI tools, such as GPT-4o.
The popularity of creating images in the Ghibli style has surged so much that even Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, has commented on it. He mentioned the overwhelming influx of users and the strain it has put on the ChatGPT servers, humorously stating that his team couldn't sleep!
It all began when some users realized that GPT-4o could turn images into artwork in the Studio Ghibli style using text commands. This feature gained more attention when it became possible to create these images even without a ChatGPT Plus subscription. GPT-4o in the free version allows image uploads, though only one image can be uploaded per day.
To create your portrait in the Studio Ghibli style using ChatGPT, follow these steps:
Go to chatgpt.com or the ChatGPT app and log in to your account (or create a new one).
Make sure you have selected the GPT-4o model (no ChatGPT Plus subscription is required).
Upload a clear photo of yourself or the person you want to transform, taken from a front-facing angle.
Enter a detailed text prompt to generate the image. You can enter the prompt in both Persian and English. Here’s an example prompt in both languages:
Example Prompt in Persian: "این تصویر را به یک پرتره انیمهای با سبک استودیو جیبلی تبدیل کن. از پالت رنگهای ملایم، پسزمینهی فانتزی و ویژگیهای چهره الهامگرفته از شخصیتهای جیبلی استفاده کن. آن را مانند یک صحنه از فیلم همسایه من توتورو یا شهر اشباح طراحی کن."
Example Prompt in English: "Turn this image into a Studio Ghibli-style animated portrait. Use the soft color palette, whimsical background, and facial features inspired by Ghibli characters. Style it like a scene from 'My Neighbor Totoro' or 'Spirited Away'."
Wait a few seconds for the AI to generate the image.
Download your image or take a screenshot.
Many users suggest adding more details to your text prompt for a better and more accurate result. Anjana Rao, a YouTuber with extensive experience using ChatGPT, explains: "The more details you include in your prompt, the better and more accurate the output will be."
