  "textContent": "I’ve been having a really hard time getting ChatGPT to generate images with a real transparent background\n\nI’ve tried a lot of different prompt variations already. I’ve asked for a real alpha channel, asked for a transparent PNG, asked it to check whether the file actually has transparency before giving it to me, and tried a bunch of other wording too. Most of the time it still doesn’t work\n\nThe weird part is that every now and then it gives me a transparent background even when I didn’t specifically ask for it. So it seems like it can happen, just not in a consistent way\n\nAt this point I’m mostly trying to understand whether there are any good practices that make this work better. If anyone has a better way to phrase it or a more reliable workflow, I’d really like to hear it",
