Introducing ChatGPT Images 2.5
OpenAI launches ChatGPT Images 2.5 with two API variants improving multi-turn instruction following and subject-preserving edits.
OpenAI released ChatGPT Images 2.5, exposing two API model IDs: gpt-image-2.5-sunburst for precision editing and gpt-image-2.5-flare for fast everyday generation. The company says its image models have generated more than 3 billion images across ChatGPT Images and the GPT-Image API. The update improves multi-turn instruction following, response speed, and preservation of subjects from reference photos.
- Two API model IDs: gpt-image-2.5-sunburst (precision editing) and gpt-image-2.5-flare (fast generation)
- OpenAI reports over 3 billion images generated across ChatGPT Images and GPT-Image API models
- Improvements target multi-turn instruction following, faster responses, and subject preservation
Introducing ChatGPT Images 2.5 OpenAI's image generation models are apparently used "more than 3 billion images across ChatGPT Images and the GPT‑Image models in the API". This latest release improves their instruction-following ability across multiple turns, responds faster, and "is better at preserving the subjects in your reference photos". There are two new model IDs in the API: gpt-image-2.5-sunburst and gpt-image-2.5-flare . Based on this I think Sunburst is the stronger option: Choose Sunburst for workflows where editing precision matters most, and Flare for fast, high-quality everyday image generation. I upgraded my openai_image.py CLI tool to support passing in one or more…
