📌 Decision Rule & Usage Recommendation

Check if status === "success" AND total_images > 0. Iterate through the returned images list to extract image_url, hd_url, and thumbnail_url.

💡 What Problem Does This Solve?

• "Official DALL-E 3 API fees ($0.04 - $0.08 per image) are extremely expensive for high-volume apps."
• "Open-source Midjourney / Stable Diffusion setups require GPU infrastructure and complex prompt tuning."
• "Difficulty obtaining multi-model text-to-image generation in a single unified API payload."

AI Image Generator delivers automated, low-latency, high-resolution AI artwork generation in a single API or Actor run.
