OpenAI shipped ChatGPT Images 2.5, a faster image generation model with improved fidelity for faces and pets, consistent details across sequential edits, and comment-based edits that change only what you ask for. A new Sketch feature lets users draw rough input directly in ChatGPT, and two API variants launched: GPT-Image-2.5 Flare and GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst. Adobe also added the new models to Firefly's partner-model lineup the same day.

Why it matters

First major OpenAI image-model refresh since ChatGPT Images 2 in April, with API variants and same-day distribution through Adobe Firefly.
