OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Images 2.0, a significant upgrade to its AI image generation tool, marking a shift from simple aesthetics to deeper visual intelligence. This model can interpret user prompts with greater depth, enabling the creation of complex visuals, such as comic strips and infographics. CEO Sam Altman described it as a leap akin to moving from GPT-3 to GPT-5, emphasizing its capacity for detailed instruction-following and accurate object placement. The model introduces a dual-mode system consisting of Instant Mode for quick outputs and Thinking Mode for more deliberate, refined image creation, available to paid users. It can generate images in up to 2K resolution, supports multiple languages, and features advanced text rendering, addressing previous limitations in text accuracy within images. ChatGPT Images 2.0 is accessible via ChatGPT and API, allowing users to enhance their visual projects by refining prompts and styles. This update positions OpenAI's tool as a practical utility for design and creative problem-solving.
