ChatGPT can now make GIFs, the short looping clips, from your prompts

ChatGPT can now make GIFs. You describe the clip you want, and the tool builds a short animation that loops. OpenAI added the feature with an update to ChatGPT's image tool, called Images 2.6, according to NewsBytes.

What changed

A GIF is a short, silent clip that plays over and over. People use them all the time in texts and chats, often as reactions or jokes. Until now, ChatGPT's image tool made still pictures. With Images 2.6, the same kind of prompt can produce a moving clip instead.

Who it affects

The most obvious users are people who like sending custom memes to friends and family. Small businesses may also care. If you run social posts for a shop, a restaurant or a service, you may be able to make simple animated clips without learning design software.

What is not known yet

The material available is thin, so several basic questions are open. It does not say which ChatGPT plans get the feature, whether free users are included, or if there are limits on how many GIFs you can make. It also does not say how long the clips can be, how good they look, or how quickly the rollout will reach everyone.

What happens next

Watch how OpenAI rolls this out, including which plans get it and any limits. If you want to try it, check the image tool in your ChatGPT account over the coming days. The feature may not show up for everyone at once.
