The most important thing I think DALL-E shows is that it has a model of our world and culture. It's not intelligence, but it is knowledge.
Google can give you endless pictures of giraffes if you search for it. But it can only connect you to what exists. It doesn't know things, it knows OF things.
DALL-E has knowledge of the concept of a giraffe, and can synthesize an endless amount of never-before seen giraffes for you. It actually knows what a giraffe is.
