- OpenAI launches ChatGPT Images 2.0, a model that can generate multiple images per prompt and render text in languages such as Chinese and Hindi, with a knowledge cutoff of Dec 2025.
- OpenAI makes the new model globally available to ChatGPT and Codex users, while a higher‑performance version is limited to paying subscribers.
- OpenAI adds customizable aspect ratios from 3:1 to 1:3, letting users specify image size directly in the prompt.
- Google continues to improve its Nano Banana model, focusing on text rendering in images, highlighting the competitive race in multimodal AI.
- OpenAI integrates internet search into Images 2.0, enabling up‑to‑date factual content such as weather forecasts in generated graphics.
Why it matters: OpenAI’s paying subscribers get a premium multimodal tool, with the model’s Dec 2025 knowledge cutoff delivering up‑to‑date content, while Google’s Nano Banana loses market edge and competitors see slower adoption.
