Overview

The AI Image Caption Generator is a Python-based application that utilizes OpenAI's CLIP model to generate meaningful captions for images. This tool provides users with an easy-to-use graphical interface (GUI) for selecting images and obtaining captions, along with additional features such as text-to-speech, translation, history tracking, and more.

Features

1. AI-Powered Captions – Uses the CLIP model to generate accurate image captions.
2. Graphical User Interface (GUI) – Simple and user-friendly UI using Tkinter.
3. Image Preview – Displays the selected image before generating a caption.
4. Copy to Clipboard – Easily copy captions for further use.
5. Text-to-Speech – Listen to the generated captions using a speech engine.
6. Translation Support – Translate captions into multiple languages.
7. Caption History – Stores generated captions for reference.
8. Colorful Theme – An elegant and visually appealing UI.
9. Multi-Device Support – Runs on both Windows and macOS.
10. Lightweight & Fast – Works efficiently without high system requirements.
