Generate AI images with OpenAI

Now you can decide to add your AI images to WordPress manually. The best option is to use OpenAI platforms OpenArt And ChartGPT. However, keep in mind that these methods require you to upload the images to your WordPress site yourself.
This can quickly become overwhelming and confusing. However, the advantage is that it can be cheaper because you don’t have to buy a page builder like SeedProd and Divi Builder.
It is also important to point out that with these OpenAI platforms, you generate your AI images through their integration with DALL·E, another OpenAI tool. Previously, you had to log into DALL·E 2 on the website itself and generate the images from there.
But with the evolution from DALL·E 2 to DALL·E 3, OpenAI is trying to make it more user-friendly by letting you generate both text and written content from one platform, namely ChatGPT 4. However, if you want to use its image generation platform use OpenArt.
Additionally, since the same company makes DALL·E ChatGPT and OpenArt, the integration is smooth and user-friendly.
However, you need to purchase AI credits to create the images. ChatGPT 4 offers 50 credits to get you started trying it out. While OpenArt offers 20 AI credits. Below we will explain how to use both OpenAI platforms.
Step 1: Generate AI images on OpenAI
Create an image in ChatGPT 4
First go to the ChatGPT 4 platform and log in. This OpenAI tool makes registering as a user very easy as you can use a username and password, a Google account, a Microsoft account, or your Apple ID.

Once you’ve logged in to your ChatGPT 4 account, all you have to do is describe what type of image you want to create and offer as many details as possible. Remember to mention something like “Create an image of…” to give the AI tool a direct command to create a downloadable image in its response.
Once the image is created, you can save it to your PC using the download button on the image.

Create an image in OpenArt
Now, the AI image creation process in OpenArt is very similar to that of ChartGPT 4. The biggest difference is that you don’t have to tell it to specifically create an image. In addition, numerous AI image functions are available to you.
You just type in your prompt and OpenArt takes care of the rest.
First go to the OpenArt website and log in or log in. This is also a very simple process since you can use the same options as in the case of ChatGPT 4.

Once you’re in your OpenArt account, select “+Create Image” to open the prompt box on the left.

Next, enter the image description for the AI tool to generate the image. With OpenArt you can choose Improve promptand ChatGPT improves your text input. When you’re happy with the prompt, click Create.
The image appears in the window on the right. Then select it to expand and edit it.

Here you can edit the image, remove the background, move it to albums and much more. Once you’re happy with the image, download it in the best format for your website.

At this point you can add it to your website.
Step 2: Upload the OpenAI image to WordPress
Next, go to your WordPress dashboard and upload it to your WordPress library like any other image.
To do this, select Media » Add new media file. Then drag and drop your AI image from your local storage into the upload area. That’s it. You can now use this image in any of your posts or pages.

You can also upload the image directly to any post or page. All you have to do is open an existing page or post. Then use the visual editor’s search bar to find that Picture Block. Once you’ve done this, drag and drop your AI image into the upload section of the block and refresh the page.

Well done! You can now manually create an AI image using OpenArt and ChatGPT 4 through their integration with DALL·E and add it to your WordPress site.
Bonus tip:
As mentioned earlier, this method requires you to manually upload the AI images to your WordPress site after generating them using the OpenAI platforms.
But you can use Uncanny Automator to automatically generate the images directly on your WordPress site.

Uncanny Automator is the best automation plugin for WordPress. It can help you by automating content scheduling, order management, customer retention, course registration, and more. Most importantly, integration with OpenAI modules ensures fast and effective text-to-image generation.
The best part is that you can use Uncanny Automator and WPForms to give users the ability to generate their own AI images from the frontend of your website, increasing engagement.
Once you’ve installed and set up Uncanny Automator, all you need to do is configure the OpenAI API settings with your credentials.
After installing WPForms, create a form with fields for image description and size.
Then create a new recipe using Uncanny Automator and select the “Form Submit” trigger event using WPForms. Keep in mind that this Uncanny Automator only supports one trigger per recipe.
Then add an action to generate an image using DALL·E, specifying a text-based prompt. Uncanny Automator processes this prompt using DALL·E’s algorithms to create vibrant original images and save them directly to your WordPress media library.
With this setup, both you and your users can generate AI images using the WPForms form on the frontend of your website.
