Here is a step-by-step guide on how you can create beautiful infographics using ChatGPT Plus and Dall-E 3.

Technical note: This ability to create beautiful infographics with text in them is a new feature in Dall-E 3 (it was not available in Dall-E 2)

Example

Here is an example generated using this process. Most of the hard work was done with AI, with very little human text-editing at the end (in Canva)

Example infographic fully generated using Dall-E and then edited with Canva

Requirements

You need the ChatGPT Plus ($20) subscription.
ChatGPT Plus ( $20 subscription) — GPT-4 with built-in Dall-E
  1. ChatGPT Plus (the $20 subscription)
  2. Canva

Step 1: Generate Visual Description

First, generate the visual description for the infographic.

Using ChatGPT GPT-4, use a prompt like this:

My job is to create engaging visual infographics for blog posts. Act like an expert infographics creator and provide a visual description for the infographic that the graphic designer can then implement.

The content of the blog post is delimit $$$

$$$
<Paste blog or section content here>
$$$

Step 2: Create Using Dall-E 3

Now generate the image using Dall-E 3 — which is in-built into the new GPT-4 interface.

Use a prompt like this:

Create an infographic for the blog post using the above visual description.

Step 3: Edit in Canva

1. Load the image in Canva
2. Click on “Edit Photo”
3. Select “Grab Text”

Step 4: Finish Up

  1. Fix all the text. (Side note: Dall-E makes lots of spelling mistakes. Do not trust anything it has written)
  2. Make sure to adjust the fonts and sizes of the text.
  3. Done!
