The Big Story: The New ChatGPT Images Is Here 🎨

What Happened: OpenAI released GPT Image 1.5, a complete overhaul of ChatGPT’s image capabilities. This is their “code red” response to Google’s viral success with Nano Banana Pro.

The Analysis:

  • Precise Editing: The model now changes only what you ask for while preserving lighting, composition, and facial likeness. No more regenerating entire images to fix one detail.

  • New Creative Studio: CEO of Applications Fidji Simo unveiled a dedicated “Images” tab in ChatGPT. It works like a creative studio with preset styles, trending prompts, and inspiration features. No written prompt required for many transformations.

  • Advanced Transformations: The model excels at adding, subtracting, combining, blending, and transposing elements. Think believable clothing try-ons, hairstyle changes, and stylistic filters that keep the essence of your original image.

  • 4x Faster Generation: Speed improvements mean real-time creative workflows are finally possible.

  • API Access: Available to developers as GPT Image 1.5, working across all ChatGPT models without needing to select a specific one.

The Takeaway: After testing both models (GPT Image 1.5 and Nano Banana Pro) we still think Nano Banana is better than ChatGPT’s, however models are getting better and better and we believe it will get to a point where all of their results will be indistinguishable from real images.
