ChatGPT strikes again (if you haven't seen this yet, you're missing out)

GPT-4’s Image Generator Went Viral this week, Here’s Why

You’ve probably seen them on your feed: those cozy, dreamy Studio Ghibli-style AI images. They’ve gone viral again—and this time, it’s not Midjourney or DALL·E doing the work.

It’s ChatGPT.

Yep, OpenAI’s new image generator is now built directly into GPT-4, and it’s quietly become one of the best visual tools out there. Users are generating high-quality comics, posters, menus, memes, and of course, those viral Ghibli-inspired scenes.

And it’s good. Like… “make a fitness comic with readable speech bubbles” good.
Like… “draw a cyberpunk coffee shop menu in Japanese” good.
Like… “Will Smith holding a GTA 6 case while eating spaghetti” good.

You get the point.

This thing nails layout, text accuracy, multiple characters, remixing—you can even turn a real photo into a fantasy-style illustration in one go. (That’s exactly how the viral Ghibli trend started.)

You can actually try it yourself.
Just go to chat.openai.com, switch to GPT-4, and start prompting. You can even remix images, turn them into stickers, or generate full scenes with multiple characters.

Honestly, this feature got so viral, it felt like everyone found out overnight. But if you want to stay ahead of these kinds of viral AI trends before they blow up, we track them in real time using VidBuzz.

NEWS & UPDATES
US falling behind in the AI war?

Let’s talk about the biggest AI news and updates this week and what they actually mean.

1. Google’s Gemini 2.5 is a “Thinking Model”

Google DeepMind dropped Gemini 2.5 Pro, calling it their most intelligent AI model yet. It tops reasoning benchmarks, generates code from a one-line prompt, and leads in math, science, and agentic coding. It’s already live in Google AI Studio and available to Gemini Advanced users, with a 1M token context window and plans to double it.

2. Krisp Launches Real-Time Accent Changer for Indians

Krisp launched a tool that converts Indian English accents to American English during live calls. Though still in beta, early enterprise tests showed 26% better sales conversions. Support for more accents like Filipino is on the way.

3. China’s AI Surge Has US Worried

There’s growing concern among top U.S. AI leaders that America’s dominance in artificial intelligence is slipping. In recent reports submitted to the government, OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic sounded the alarm on China’s rapid progress—particularly models like DeepSeek R1 and Ernie 4.5.

Ernie 4.5 by Baidu reportedly outperforms GPT-4.5 on several benchmarks—while costing just 1% of the price. Meanwhile, DeepSeek is fully open-source, state-backed, and dramatically cheaper—up to 40x less than U.S. models. That combination of performance + price is reshaping the global AI landscape.

OpenAI compared the situation to Huawei’s dominance in 5G, citing national security risks if China’s models become embedded in critical infrastructure. Anthropic warned that its own models are capable of bioweapon design, and that without stricter export control on chips and compute, China could gain a major edge.

If you’re reading this and thinking, ‘Damn, this AI race is getting serious’, you’re not wrong.

TOOL OF THE WEEK
Opus Clip - The Shortcut to Viral Shorts

There are hundreds of AI tools that claim to “save time” but very few that actually save momentum. That’s what Opus Clip does differently.

Here’s how I’ve been using it:
Instead of recording new short videos from scratch, I just upload longer podcasts, or videos and Opus instantly finds the best viral hooks, cuts them into punchy clips, and even adds captions that look like they were designed by a pro.

The results?

• Short-form clips ready in minutes

• Auto-edited with highlights, zooms, emojis, and text

• Hook-based intros that grab attention (no editor needed)

For people running AI businesses or educational brands, this is the shortcut to multiplying content without burning out.
