OpenAI has had to implement limits due to the rapid rise in popularity of Ghibli-style art images.
Reasons for Introducing Limits
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman noted that the company's infrastructure is under strain due to the sharp increase in image generation requests. To prevent overload, OpenAI has temporarily limited the number of requests.
Trends and Reactions
Many users, including well-known figures like Elon Musk and David Sacks, joined the new trend, using AI to create images in the Studio Ghibli style. These images filled social media, leading to OpenAI's systems becoming overloaded.
Future Plans
OpenAI intends to improve its infrastructure soon and remove the introduced limits. The company also announced plans to release new versions, GPT-4.5 and GPT-5, in the coming months to enhance content generation capabilities.
