# Why did “Champions 2026” become “Chmapoins 2O26”?

**Asked ChatGPT for an image of a cricketer holding a trophy with "Champions 2026" written on it. It refused the first version, then when it worked the text came out as "Chmapoins 2O26". Any help?**

Ha, the garbled text thing. Yes, it's still a problem even though it's better than it used to be.

For the refusal, I'd bet you named a real player or a real team. The image side is much fussier than the chat side about real people and logos. Don't name anyone. "An Indian batsman in a blue jersey lifting a gold trophy" goes through fine; "Rohit Sharma lifting the World Cup" does not.

For the text, keep it very short, put it in quotes, and say where it goes: 'the words "[Champions 2026](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026%E2%80%9327_UEFA_Champions_League)" in bold white letters at the bottom'. If it still messes up after two tries, generate the image without any text and add it yourself in Canva. Takes two minutes and saves a lot of frustration.

Well, AI is going to learn quickly. You just need to keep experimenting and trying. In the next few years, I think we’ll have much more sophisticated AI systems that we can work with and rely on for many different tasks.
