ChatGPT can now virtually try on clothes for you
Developing
In Short: Users can also upload an image of an item, such as a web screenshot, and ask ChatGPT to virtually try it on.
On Thursday, OpenAI announced the global launch of two new shopping features for its ChatGPT platform, including a virtual try-on option and a favorites function.
The new Try On button will appear in ChatGPT’s shopping results, enabling users to experiment with different outfits.
The favorites function lets users save products they discover to a Library within the app for future reference.
OpenAI claims that its newly launched ChatGPT Images 2.5 model enhances the virtual try-on experience with more natural lighting, richer textures, and improved editing reliability.
While OpenAI is experimenting with how ChatGPT can assist in online shopping, it remains to be seen if the AI chatbot will become the primary tool for virtual try-ons, especially with Google having launched a similar feature last year.
What's still developing
- To start, virtual try-on allows ChatGPT users to upload a selfie or a full-body photo in order to visualize how an article of clothing or an accessory might look on them.
- The other new option, Favorites, lets you save products you discover to a Library in the app so you can come back to them later. (These items will be saved alongside your try-on images, the company notes.) OpenAI said that ChatGPT can help users shop in other ways, too.
- You can also upload an image of an item, like a web screenshot, and ask ChatGPT to try it on for you.
