DALL-E & ChatGPT: A Trick to Recreating Specific Images Using Seeds

Recreating a specific image using seed may not be 100% safe.

The following two images were generated twice in different sessions, using the same size, prompt, seed.

{
  "size": "1024x1024",
  "prompts": [
    "Japanese anime style. In a dimly lit dungeon, a fearsome beast with sharp claws and glowing blue eyes stands guard, ready to attack any intruder. "
  ],
  "seeds": [3075182356]
}

Comparing them at the pixel level, will find they are slightly different. Perhaps the DALL-3 model will change over time (e.g. online learning).


Edit (2023/11/4):

There is no way to recreate the image using this approach.
