If you’ve been scrolling through social media and wondering why everything looks straight out of a Studio Ghibli film, you’re not alone. OpenAI dropped a game-changing update to GPT-4o, allowing users to generate images in the beloved Ghibli anime style and the internet is obsessed.
From memes to hyper-detailed AI illustrations, people everywhere are transforming their photos and concepts into dreamy, pastel-colored Ghibli-inspired visuals. Businesses, influencers, and even political figures are jumping on the trend, flooding feeds with AI-generated magic. Unlike OpenAI’s DALL-E, this new feature works directly within GPT-4o, making it easier than ever to bring these artistic transformations to life.
For those unfamiliar with Studio Ghibli’s aesthetic, it’s a signature animation style defined by soft, muted colors, intricate details, and an almost dreamlike feel. The Japanese animation studio, known for films like Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro, has inspired generations, and now, AI is making it easier than ever to recreate that magic.
Users simply upload an image and ask the model to transform it into Ghibli style. This latest AI advancement showcases how fast technology is evolving, merging nostalgia with modern creativity.
Here’s some images we tried out on the app:
