If you delete the chat where the image was generated, the corresponding image will also be deleted from the ChatGPT Library.
Introduction
A new "Library" tab was recently added to ChatGPT. This tab shows a list of images you’ve generated in ChatGPT.
Since it wasn’t immediately obvious how to delete these images, I’m leaving this note.

How to Delete Images from ChatGPT Library
Method
If you delete the entire chat where the image was generated, the corresponding image will also be removed from the ChatGPT Library!
On the other hand, as of this writing (June 2025), there is no way to delete just the image directly from the Library tab.
Let’s Try It
Let’s actually try deleting an image from the ChatGPT Library.
First, generate an image in a new chat.
The generated image will appear in the ChatGPT Library tab like this:
Now, delete the chat where the image was generated.
Click the three-dot icon next to the chat name and select "Delete."
Once the chat is deleted, the corresponding image will be removed from the Library.
Conclusion
This was a quick note on how to delete images from the ChatGPT Library.
I hope this helps anyone else who was confused about this.
