ChatGPT Rolls Out Superhero-Style AI Action Portraits To Rival Gemini Nano Banana: Check 10 Prompts

OpenAI has launched AI Action Portrait images, a creative feature that lets users transform their photos into stylised, superhero-like action portraits. This tool uses generative AI to create 3D-like illustrations with customisable elements like labels, costumes, and sidekicks. The feature is a response to Google's Gemini Nano Banana AI image generator, which went viral for turning photos into playful 3D action figures. OpenAI's tool takes a similar concept and integrates it into ChatGPT, allowing users to create personalised, comic-book-style portraits.

Unlike basic filters on social apps, this tool uses ChatGPT's advanced image generation (powered by GPT-4) to craft hyper-personalised illustrations. 

How to create AI Action Portrait images

Upload Your Photo: Snap a clear selfie or select one from your gallery. Ensure your face is well-lit and visible for accurate rendering.

Craft Your Prompt: Start with "Transform my photo into a 3D superhero action figure named [Your Hero Name], clad in [describe costume] with [powers or accessories]." Add flair: "Include my cat as a sidekick in a tiny cape" or "Package it in a retro comic book box."

Generate and Refine: Hit send, and watch AI work its magic. If the first output isn't perfect, reply with tweaks like "Make the armour more metallic and add glowing runes."

Share: Download your portrait and post it online.
