The frenzy for creating a ghibali-style AI art using the chat’s image-generation tool last week led the record bounce in users for Openi’s chatbot, stressed its server under stress and temporarily limited the use of the feature.
The viral trend saw users from all over the world to see the famous Japanese animation outfits, studios Ghibli’s hand -prepared style, with images on the social media of floods on the social media of floods, established by famous director Hayo Miazaki and known for films like “Spiritted Ave” and “My Neber Totoro”.
According to data from the market research firm Iswell, the average weekly active users violated the 150 million mark for the first time this year.
OpenIAI CEO Sam Altman said in an X post on Monday, “We added a million users in the last hour, comparing it with a million users in five days compared to the red-hot launch of the chat over two years ago than two years earlier than a million users in five days.
After the AI ​​company launched the update to its GPT-4O model by the AI ​​company, according to the Sensor data, active users, in-app subscription revenue and app download reached an all-time high level last week, enabling advanced image generation capabilities.
The Market Intelligence firm said that the global app download and weekly active users increased by 11%and 5%respectively, while the in-app purchase revenue increased by 6%.
However, Chatbot has been hit with a series of glitter and low-scale outage in the last one week as it belongs to the spike in traffic due to the popularity of its image-generating tool.
The co-founder of the OpenAII said on Tuesday, “We are getting things under control, but you should expect a new release from openi, breaking the luggage and sometimes a slower release.”
Legal uncertainty
The comprehensive use of the AI ​​tool for the administered effect has also questioned the potential copyright violations.
“The legal scenario of AI-Janit images is an indefinite area mimicking the specific style of studio Ghibali. Copyright law typically protected only specific manifestations rather than artistic styles,” Ivan Brown said, the legal firm Neel and McDewit’s companions.
Openai did not immediately respond to a request to comment on data used to train its AI model and its latest feature to train the validity.
Since 2016, the comments on AI-based images of Studio Ghibli co-founder Miazaki resumed after the trend last week.
“I am completely hate,” Miyajaki said after the initial render of AI-Janit.
“I never want to involve this technique in my work.”
