OpenAI launches a faster and smarter image model for ChatGPT.
OpenAI has released GPT Image 1.5, a big upgrade to its image generator. It creates images much faster, shows text more clearly, and keeps images consistent during edits. This move also answers strong recent updates from Google.
Images are made up to 4x faster, while faces, lighting, and layout stay the same during edits
Text quality is much better, working well for long text, charts, and different font sizes
The model now ranks number one on major image and editing leaderboards
