Is there a way to try this out? DALL-E2 also had amazing demos but the limitations became apparent once real people had a chance to run their own queries.

Looks like no, "The potential risks of misuse raise concerns regarding responsible open-sourcing of code and demos. At this time we have decided not to release code or a public demo. In future work we will explore a framework for responsible externalization that balances the value of external auditing with the risks of unrestricted open-access."
