OpenAI Unveils GPT Image 1.5: Image Generation Now 4x Faster

OpenAI has announced the release of its new specialized model for visual content—GPT Image 1.5 (also known as ChatGPT Images). The headline technological achievement of the update is a fourfold increase in generation speed compared to previous iterations. The new model not only creates images faster but also offers significantly improved built-in editing tools, allowing ChatGPT users and developers via API to precisely adjust individual details on the fly without a full frame regeneration.

The launch of GPT Image 1.5 is a direct response from OpenAI to the intensifying competition from Midjourney, Flux, and Google Imagen. Beyond speed, the model demonstrates a deeper understanding of complex text prompts and improved rendering of text within images. The update has begun rolling out to ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise subscribers. Experts believe that the speed optimization and advanced editing features will make AI graphics more viable for professional use in real-time marketing and design workflows.
