The internet is buzzing with an exciting new trend and has made users go crazy online with AI-generated images in the iconic Studio Ghibli style.
This trend went viral online when users began posting ‘ghiblified’ images of themselves and other iconic scenes from movies, memes, and posters of prominent personalities using ChatGPT's latest update.
OpenAI’s image generator, which is a part of the ChatGPT-4.0 release, allows users to change ordinary photos into magical, hand-drawn images.
While many people are appreciating and following this new feature and having fun turning their photos into Japanese anime-style portraits, not everyone is a fan.
Some argue that these AI-generated images are disrespectful to Miyazaki’s creative genius, calling them a poor imitation of his distinctive style.
Currently, OpenAI’s Ghibli-style image generator is only available to ChatGPT Plus users, who pay a monthly subscription.
But there’s good news for free users as there are other tools available online that can be used to create Ghibli images of oneself, without the need for a subscription.
