I tried to generate an image inside of a custom GPT, and it worked, but it’s still using DALL-E3. Anyone have info on how to update them, or if this feature is still in the works? I’d love to leverage the power of the new generation in my GPT.

Currently custom GPTs use only “dalle” tool to create images. 4o Image Generation is not able in the GPTs.

I see that now. I wasn’t sure if that would make any difference since the image generation is “native” now. But in testing, it’s not there.

Anyone have any word or reference on if / when it’s coming?

> Following image is from a custom GPT. Today, I received several times a message in some custom GPTs like below. It looks custom GPTs will use 4o Image Generation soon. Made with the old version of image generation. New images [coming soon](https://openai.com/index/introducing-4o-image-generation/). and This image was created using DALL·E, OpenAI’s legacy image generation model. A newer model is rolling out soon within ChatGPT, so stay tuned for even more enhanced visuals!
