DALL-E image generator gets big update, more authors sue OpenAI & GitHub's Copilot Chat now in VS Code

OpenAI has announced DALL-E 3, a big update to its image generator service. Going by the examples, it's probably a serious competitor to Midjourney, which is regarded as the current industry leader for turning text into images as a service. The killer feature for it would be integration with ChatGPT so you can tweak the image as you go, rather than having to come up with a new prompt each time. DALL-E 3 is still a "research preview", but will be available for ChatGPT Plus customers in October. Meanwhile, John Grisham, Jodi Picoult, George RR Martin and 17 other authors are suing OpenAI for ripping off their work with ChatGPT. The lawsuit has specific ChatGPT queries that generates texts that use the same characters developed by the authors, which infringe on their copyrights. Oh and finally in AI-land, GitHub Copilot Chat is now available directly in VS Code for all users, for GitHub Copilot subscribers.
