GPT Image 2.5
AI Image Generator
GPT Image 2.5 is the OpenAI image model before 2.6, here in its Sunburst version. It makes and edits images with readable text at 1K, 2K or 4K, in five quality levels from Low to Max, from a prompt or up to 4 reference images. At Low and Medium quality it makes fewer tokens than 2.6, so drafts cost less.
