Quick Answer
ChatGPT (via DALL-E) and Gemini generate images natively. Claude and DeepSeek cannot.
Detailed Answer
ChatGPT integrates DALL-E 3 for high-quality image generation directly in conversation. Gemini also generates images natively. For professional-grade output, dedicated tools like Midjourney and Stable Diffusion still lead. Claude, DeepSeek, and Perplexity focus on text and do not generate images. If image generation is important, ChatGPT offers the most convenient all-in-one experience.
