DALL-E vs GPT Image 2: Which One Should You Use
The site has 19 and 207 reproducible cases for each, respectively. Below, we compare strengths, prompt writing, and final results side by side.
The Bottom Line
DALL-E is better for Friendly to natural-language descriptions; GPT Image 2 is better for Conversational, iterative editing. Running the same idea through both is usually worth it — they "listen" differently, so the prompt has to be adjusted to match.
Strengths & Prompt-Writing Comparison
DALL-E
Writing full sentences, as if describing a painting, works better than stacking keywords. When you want a specific style, describe the feeling you're after rather than listing style jargon.
GPT Image 2
It responds better to conversational descriptions than to stacks of parameter keywords. When editing an image, saying "change the background to…" is more efficient than rewriting the whole prompt.
