OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Images 2.0 on April 21, 2026 and lists gpt-image-2 as the latest GPT Image model in its developer docs. OpenAI describes GPT Image 2 as a model for fast, high-quality image generation and editing, with text and image input, image output, flexible sizes, and high-fidelity image inputs.

- More flexible sizes:
gpt-image-2supports more valid image dimensions, including common square, landscape, portrait, 2K, and 4K use cases; sizes above 2K are currently experimental - Higher-fidelity image input: In image editing and reference-image workflows,
gpt-image-2processes image inputs at high fidelity, useful for product photos, portraits, and brand assets - Stronger text and complex information: OpenAI’s system card says ChatGPT Images 2.0 improves world knowledge, instruction following, dense text, and complex detail generation
- Streaming partial images: The Image API can return partial images through
streamandpartial_images, making product experiences feel more responsive

Notes
- Image generation averages about
100to200seconds. Set client, gateway, or external-tool request timeouts above300seconds, and show a waiting state in your application. gpt-image-2currently does not support transparent backgrounds. Generate a non-transparent image first, then remove the background with another image tool if needed.- Image results are returned as
b64_jsonby default. Decode the base64 value before saving the image. - Large, high-quality images can increase latency and cost. Use
quality: "low"for previews. - Review images with text, layout, and brand elements before publishing them.
