OpenAI Introduces ChatGPT Images 2.0 for Enhanced AI Image Generation
New model generates text and UI from prompts, not screenshots.
OpenAI has teased its upcoming AI image generation model, gpt-image-2, set to be unveiled later today. The teaser, shared on social media, appears to show a screenshot of ChatGPT running in Chrome on macOS, but the company explicitly states it is not a screenshot. Instead, it demonstrates the model's enhanced ability to generate realistic text and UI elements from text prompts, marking a significant improvement over previous image generation models.
This development signals OpenAI's focus on serving developers and the growing trend of agentic coding and design. By enabling the generation of realistic mockups directly from prompts, gpt-image-2 could streamline UI/UX prototyping and design workflows. The announcement is scheduled for noon PT (3 p.m. ET), and the teaser notably features macOS Sequoia UI from 2024, hinting at potential integration with Apple's ecosystem. This move aligns with OpenAI's recent releases, including Codex features and a $100/month Pro plan for developers.
