OpenAI launches GPT Image 1.5
OpenAI announced a new image model called GPT Image 1.5, integrated directly into ChatGPT. The model is described as up to four times faster than its predecessor and built to be more adept at editing images while reliably following user instructions.
Dedicated Images tab and new workflow
ChatGPT now features a dedicated “Images” tab that serves as a hub for creating visuals. The tab includes pre‑built filters, curated options based on current trends, and templates that let users generate or edit images without typing a prompt. Users can select options such as “retro magazine layout” or “futuristic food styling” and see results instantly.
Key technical improvements
The upgraded model can produce denser text within images without devolving into nonsense, render crowds of small faces without odd artifacts, and keep track of individual elements across multiple edits. This means a user can change one aspect of an image without the AI unintentionally altering other parts. The system also handles style blending, moving components between images, and isolating single elements for placement in new settings more reliably than earlier versions.
Limitations remain
OpenAI acknowledges that the model can still misinterpret phrases or render outputs that are too literal, and occasional errors persist. However, the company suggests that such mistakes are now exceptions rather than the norm.
Integration with other tools
In parallel with the image upgrade, Adobe announced that Photoshop and Acrobat are being embedded into ChatGPT, hinting at a future where multiple editing platforms coexist within a single interface. Users could, for example, prompt ChatGPT to design a poster and then refine it in Photoshop without leaving the ChatGPT window.
Implications for creators
OpenAI frames GPT Image 1.5 as a serious creative tool that delivers professional‑level results without requiring technical skill or expensive software. While the upgrade expands access to high‑quality visual generation, it also raises questions about the source of the training data and the impact on professional artists.
