[OpenAI Launches Images 2.6: ChatGPT Adds Native GIF Generation and Editing Functions] (1) OpenAI launched the next-generation image generation model Images 2.6 and added native GIF animation generation functionality to ChatGPT. (2) Users can directly generate dynamic GIF images by entering text descriptions or uploading photos, and can adjust playback speed, edit single frames, and share their work in ChatGPT. (3) Previously, although ChatGPT could assist in creating GIFs by writing code, it could not complete the process in one step through native image generation; this update means that users do not need to master animation production skills and can complete GIF generation and editing simply by interacting with natural language. (4) In addition to the new GIF function, Images 2.6 also improved the image generation speed of ChatGPT. (5) For developers, OpenAI simultaneously launched two API models, GPT-Image-2.6 Flare and GPT-Image-2.6 Sunburst, which focus on faster generation speed and higher image quality respectively to meet the needs of different application scenarios.
