Tutorial: How to use GPT Image 2 in the same way as ChatGPT - but with a visual twist

GPT Image 2 is out for a while now, and has been blowing everyone's mind, including mine.
It is more responsive and "understanding" to prompts, tasks, specific demands than any other AI image generator I tried so far.
It's so smart and advanced that you can actually use it... or rather, talk to, in a very similar way as you talk to ChatGPT - and use it for most of the tasks that you set for ChatGPT, too! But with a visual twist.

And that is the big, big game changer. Because, so far, the various AI models were separated by their mode. We had large language models like ChatGPT or Gemini, AI image generators, AI sound generators, AI video...
But GPT Image 2 more or less merges the power of ChatGPT and image generators into one.

So, you can talk to the AI, just like you would talk with ChatGPT.
The only difference is that this time, the AI does not respond with text, words, chatting, or at least not directly. It responds in a visual way.

So let us start with some examples:

Prompt: Rank the 5 tastiest italian dishes. Give a reason for each.

Prompt: Create a pixel art design, in which nikola tesla explains his invention of alternating current.

Prompt: Create an info graphic explaining the australian emu war. The graphic should look like it is actually from the 1930s.

Create an info graphic that explains the differences between a trebuchet and a catapult. Make it look like it's from the medieval era.

Explain what a labyrinth. The letters should be arranged like a labyrinth or maze themselves.

Tell me a good italian spaghetti recipe with which i can impress my guest. make the recipe look like it was written on a medieval scroll.

Create a pixel art design that shows a space station control room. There should be a screen, and the screen should show 5 interesting facts that people rarely know about english grammar.

What is the use for this method of talking to GPT Image 2?

Well, at the most basic level, there are at least 3 potential use cases:

1: "spicing" up your text output. Want to create a promo text for your new steampunk metroidvania game? then let it create the text *in the visual style* of the game.

2: creating very specific artworks and visuals, with long and fancy texts, sentences, passages...

3: creating images where the visual arrangement of texts is actually vital to the image. crossword puzzle designs, labyrinth structures made up of sentences...

These are just some basic examples. I think there are still boundless other uses possible... there is still a lot of research that can be done!
