DALL-E, DALL-E 2, and DALL-E 3 are text-to-image models developed by OpenAI using deep learning methodologies to generate digital images from natural language descriptions, called “prompts”.

DALL-E was revealed by OpenAI in a blog post in January 2021 and uses a version of GPT-3 modified to generate images.

DALL-E 2 was the successor that generated more realistic and accurate images with 4x greater resolution than DALL-E.

DALL-E 3 is the latest model, mid-2024.
