What is DALL-E 2 ?
DALL-E 2 is an image generation model powered by artificial intelligence that can generate realistic images or works of art based on natural language descriptions entered by users (such as "a cat in space wears a space suit". It is an upgraded version of DALL-E, providing higher image resolution, stronger generation capabilities, and more precise detail processing capabilities.
Operation principle
DALL-E 2 is based on the Diffusion Model and transformers architecture. It learns how to map text descriptions to visual content by training large amounts of images-text-to-data. Specifically, it starts with random noise and gradually "denoise" to generate images until it conforms to the user description. This process combines natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision techniques, allowing models to understand complex semantics and generate corresponding images.

Frequently Asked Questions in Use
The image does not meet expectations: the description is not specific enough, it is recommended to add details (such as color, style).
Generation failed: The wording may be adjusted due to description violation of content policies (such as violent content).
Slow speed: Affected by network or server load, you can try again later.
Inadequate resolution: The free version has many restrictions, and you need to upgrade the package to get higher resolution.
