- Spivak 1y agoThe OpenAI API is a pretty high-profile example of this existing in the real world. You use it in their conversations interface when you want to include images in the conversation. Discord also uses it for attachments https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#image-data https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#image-data. More generally it's when you want to send image data as part of a larger JSON blob.
