Fast-forward for this year’s WWDC, where the tech veteran announced that he is going to promote image playground with a chat integration, which should allow for a better, more advanced AI image generation service.
With the new Chatgpt integration, users will be able to reach more styles that move beyond compositions such as emoji, which is known for image playground.
Images can be made in the following new styles: oil painting, watercolor, vector, anime and print. In addition, people will be able to choose a new “any style” option that allows them to describe what they want. These new styles will appear under a banner which reads “Chatgpt Style”.

In the past, users were limited to animation, illustration, sketches and genmosy styles.
Apple says that the image playground will send the user details to the Chatgpt to generate an image. Tech giants notes that it will not share anything with a chat without users’ permission.
By integrating the Chatgpt in the image playground, Apple is giving another shot to its AI image creation tool to attract your AP as a more well -round competitor for other similar free apps.

The updated image playground app is expected to launch this decline with the release of iOS 26.
