OpenAI Unveils GPT Image 1.5: A Faster, Smarter Image Generator
OpenAI has launched GPT Image 1.5, its new flagship AI image generation model, accompanied by a redesigned ChatGPT interface.
Announced on Tuesday, the upgrade promises better instruction-following, precise photo editing, and generation speeds up to four times faster. It's rolling out immediately to all users, regardless of subscription tier.
The model shines in "matching your intent," especially for editing existing images—offering realistic clothing and hairstyle try-ons, stylistic filters, and transformations that preserve the original subject. A new dedicated Images tab provides preset filters and trending prompts for quicker creativity.
OpenAI is pitching these tools heavily for enterprise use, from product visuals to marketing assets, as it seeks profitability amid investor pressure.
The release increases competition with Google's popular Nano Banana models, which are renowned for their powerful text rendering and editing capabilities. OpenAI responds with better text processing and a 20% API price reduction.
Described as a shift from "novelty" to "practical, high-fidelity visual creation," GPT Image 1.5 positions ChatGPT as a versatile creative studio, per CEO of Applications Fidji Simo.
