Simple answer: ChatGPT Plus uses DALL-E 3.

With API, you have to go out of your way to make the more expensive requests to DALL-E 3.

(I’m currently getting API timeouts with dall-e-3 as model, even with my doubling of all httpx timeout parameters from the OpenAI Python library.)

DALL-E-3 on API and ChatGPT will also rewrite the prompt for you. Your prompt sent to Dall-e 2 is poor, without description of the imagery to be constructed, and tries to get the AI to do what it can’t do: write text.
