Image Edit API returning exact original

Hello :slight_smile: I’ve been stumped on an issue I’ve been having with the /image/edits endpoint.

When I provide my image and prompt, receive the image url back from Open AI, and then open the new image, the new image looks exactly the same as the image i sent over. If it looked different but unlike my prompt I would assume its a prompt engineering problem. This is not the case though, the image is not edited at all.

I’m quite confused by these results since

  1. the /image/variations endpoint does return a modified image for me
  2. I know my prompt is being sent because I get an error from the API when i dont include the prompt field
  3. The new image remains unedited even after 10+ minutes so its not a latency issue generating the new image
  4. I am being charged for every API call despite no edits

Any hints as to why the API /image/edits isnt returning a modified image? Is this an API bug or a prompt engineering issue?

This is the code I’m using (clojure language and a light wrapper library around Open AI)

(defn prompt-image
    "@param og-image - path to image to evolve from. Will be converted to binary for API request
    @param prompt - how og-image should be augmented into a new image
    @dev https://cljdoc.org/d/net.clojars.wkok/openai-clojure/0.18.1/doc/usage-openai
    retuns binary of new png image"
    [og-image-path prompt]
    (try (let [image-res (oai/create-image-edit {
                :image (io/file (io/resource og-image-path)) ; wrap in io/resource to find the file appropriately
                :prompt prompt
                :n 1
                :size "1024x1024"
                {:api-key (:openai-api-key (load-config))})
            img-url (:url (first (:data image-res)))]
          (println "Inc:divine:prompt-image:resp" image-res)
          img-url
        (catch Exception err
            (log/handle-error err "Failure avatar evolution prompt" {:provider PROVIDER})
            (throw (RuntimeException. (str "err avatar evo img prompt" (.getMessage err)))))))

I have the exact same issue. I am also trying todo inpainting. Nothing works
