What should I do if I encounter issues generating images with OpenAI in Nexter Blocks?

If you're having trouble generating images, ensure that your OpenAI premium account is active and that you have a valid API key. Issues often arise from incorrect API key usage or account limitations. Additionally, check your internet connection, as a stable connection is required for successful image generation.

What image quality setting should I choose for cost-effective image generation?

To optimize costs when generating images, select a lower image quality setting from the pop-up after clicking 'Generate with AI.' For instance, choosing 'Low' quality can significantly reduce costs while still providing adequate images for most use cases. Refer to the pricing table for specific cost differences based on quality.

How does the token usage affect the cost of generating images with OpenAI?

Each image generated with OpenAI uses tokens, and the total cost is determined by the image quality and compression settings you select. Higher quality images consume more tokens, leading to increased costs. Understanding this can help you make informed decisions about the quality settings you choose.

Are there any limitations when using Nexter Blocks for AI image generation?

One limitation is that Nexter Blocks requires an OpenAI premium account for image generation. Additionally, the cost of image generation can vary significantly based on the quality and size of the images you choose, so it's essential to consider your budget when selecting settings.
