OpenAI has announced the global launch of a feature that lets users virtually try on clothing and accessories in ChatGPT.
Users can add their own photo to a clothing item shown in a conversation or to a clothing photo they upload, then view an image of what it looks like when worn.
A feature for saving products users like was also introduced, but before uploading photos, users should review the image-use settings for their personal account.
3-Line Summary
1. Virtual fitting has been added to ChatGPT
2. Images are created using selfies or full-body photos
3. Check the photo-use settings as well
Tap “Try on” on a Clothing Product
OpenAI has added a feature to ChatGPT’s shopping results that lets users virtually try on clothing and accessories. According to reports from TechCrunch and Engadget, when a clothing product appears in a conversation, users can select the product, tap “Try on,” and upload a selfie or full-body photo to create an image of themselves wearing it.
This feature is not limited to products ChatGPT finds in a conversation. Users can also upload a product photo, such as a screenshot of a web page displaying clothing, and ask ChatGPT to create an image of them wearing the item. In other words, the feature is designed to use product images and the user’s own photo together while choosing clothes.
OpenAI explained that, based on its new image feature, it expects more natural lighting and texture rendering, better adherence to editing instructions, and shorter generation times. These are the company’s performance claims. Because generated images are visualizations based on uploaded photos, they should not be considered an exact representation of the actual clothing’s fit or size.
Candidate Products Are Collected in a Library
The “Favorites” feature released alongside it allows users to save products found during conversations to the app’s library and view them again later. TechCrunch reported that saved products are stored together with virtual fitting images. The feature may be useful for users who want to compare clothing and accessories they are interested in again rather than deciding on multiple products at once.
This change is separate from the resumption of payment functionality. According to Engadget, “Instant Checkout,” which OpenAI had previously tested, has been discontinued, and OpenAI said it does not charge a fee on transactions. What is being expanded this time is product discovery, virtual fitting, and saving functionality.
Check the Default Settings for Personal Photos
Virtual fitting may use photos containing a person’s face or full body. Engadget reported that images uploaded through personal accounts may be used for training by default, and that users who do not want this must opt out in their settings. As with the convenience of checking clothing colors and styles, it is important to review the account’s image-use settings before uploading photos.
