OpenAI's GPT-4o has introduced a new image generation feature, allowing users to transform images into various art styles, including the distinctive look of Studio Ghibli. This built-in tool, accessible to all ChatGPT users since late March 2025, enables the conversion of personal photos, memes, and historical images into animated versions reminiscent of films like "Spirited Away" and "My Neighbor Totoro." The trend quickly gained popularity, with users sharing their creations on platforms like X/Twitter.

The rise of Ghibli-style AI art has stirred both excitement and ethical debates. While many users have enjoyed reimagining familiar images in the iconic animation style, concerns about AI's use of copyrighted creative works and its impact on human artists have surfaced. Hayao Miyazaki, known for his traditional hand-drawn animation, has expressed reservations about AI's role in the industry. Despite these concerns, OpenAI has largely embraced the trend, even incorporating measures to prevent direct imitation of living artists' styles.
