Open AI just announced the ChatGPT Images 2.5, an image generation engine powered by the GPT-Image-2.5 model family.
Images 2.5 produces more natural lighting and richer textures, is better at preserving the subjects in your reference photos, and follows editing instructions more reliably across multiple turns. We’ve also reduced image generation latency by up to 50% compared with Images 2.0, so you can generate images and refine your concepts more quickly.
In ChatGPT, we’re introducing product features that give you more control over the creative process. Sketch(opens in a new window) is a new feature that lets you draw directly in ChatGPT as a reference for your final image. Templates make it easier to start creating across some of the most popular image formats, like flyers and product photos. You can also now place comments directly on images for more focused editing, and you can share prompts you’ve used to let others try your ideas with their own photos and details.
Images 2.5 is available to all ChatGPT, ChatGPT Work, and Codex users across desktop, mobile, and web.
For developers, we’re introducing two new models in the API. GPT‑Image‑2.5 Flare brings the same improvements in quality, editing, and speed, and GPT‑Image‑2.5 Sunburst offers an extra level of precision for detailed creative work with longer generation times.
