Ghibli-styled images are trending, with many industry leaders, including XRP proponent David Schwartz, joining the trend, sparking discussions online.
David Schwartz, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Ripple Labs, has jumped on the Ghibli-style AI image trend powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4o model. The CTO posted a Ghibli-style anime portrait featuring Ripple CEO Brad Garlinhouse.
Ripple Executives Hop on Ghibli-Style
The new Ghibli trend has taken social media by storm, with users rushing to generate images. Joining the trend, Ripple CTO created his image with Garlinghouse, tagging the photo, “Am I doing this right?”
Many users dropped positive comments, praising the photo as “perfect.” Some, however, said the photo lacked the XRP tattoo logo.
The new Ghibli social media trend is an in-built image generation feature that lets users create stickers, signs, memes, photorealistic images, and more. This model can handle sophisticated editing prompts in a variety of artistic styles. Also, it can accurately create text within images, something OpenAI’s previous models had struggled with.
Users can create their own Ghibli images by uploading photos of their choice on the tool. Next, they prompt the generator to “Create a Studio Ghibli version of the image.” After this step, the Ghibli-style image is ready to be posted on social media.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman updated his display picture to a Ghibli-style AI image. Soon after, ChatGPT users began to create their own imagined world of Ghibli.
David Schwartz and Garlinghouse’s involvement in the Ghibli-style trend aligns with Ripple’s vision of creating groundbreaking innovations. It also demonstrates the company’s welcoming of innovations in both the traditional and crypto sectors.
Latest Ripple Developments
Meanwhile, the new Ghibli trend coincides with several developments in the broader Ripple ecosystem.
As earlier reported, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially dismissed its case against Ripple. The case dismissal renewed interest in XRP, the native token associated with Ripple.
XRP surged to as high as $3.38, before dropping to current levels. At press time, XRP is trading at $2.349, up by 0.22% in the last 24 hours. However, the daily trading increased by over 17% to $3.2 billion.
In a related development, Ripple CEO said he is convinced XPP will get featured in the US national crypto stockpile.
