What is the DALL-E mini AI image generator?
In June 2022, the DALL-E mini image generator started going viral after the internet discovered its ability to create funny and disturbing images.
Created in 2021, DALL-E is known as a transformer language model that can turn almost any idea into images.
“It receives both the text and the image as a single stream of data containing up to 1280 tokens, and is trained using maximum likelihood to generate all of the tokens, one after another,” according to Open AI.
“This training procedure allows DALL·E to not only generate an image from scratch, but also to regenerate any rectangular region of an existing image that extends to the bottom-right corner, in a way that is consistent with the text prompt.”
The AI was named after Pixar’s Wall-E, according to The Big Issue.
How can I use the DALL-E mini AI image generator?
As of this writing, the DALL-E mini AI image generator can only be used through the “AI community” site, Hugging Face.

After opening up the generator, all uses have to do is type in their desired images and click run to see their words come to life.
However, if there is a lot of traffic on the site, the generator may take a little longer to create the images.

What is AI?
Artificial intelligence, also known as AI, is “the ability of a computer or a robot controlled by a computer to do tasks that are usually done by humans because they require human intelligence and discernment,” according to Britannica.
Some of the most popular examples of AI include navigation systems, self-driving or parking cars, digital assistance, and robots.
While some people enjoy the convenience of AI, others believe that the advancements of such technology pose a risk to privacy.
