How to Leverage Dall-E in Finance?

Author: Nicolas Boucher, April 2024

Intro: What is Dall-E?

Dall-E is a program developed by OpenAI that can generate images based on text prompts.

It has many uses, such as creating finance presentations, mock-up illustrations, graphs, and icons.

The program can also assist in creating a dashboard mock-up, showing what types of graphs and layouts can be used.

After that, we can ask for help in implementing the dashboard in Excel.

In this article, we will cover how to do that.
