It's still not available in the API despite them announcing the availability. They even linked to their Image Playground where it's also not available.. I updated my local playground to support it and I'm just handling the 404 on the model gracefully https://github.com/alasano/gpt-image-1-playground

It's a staggered rollout but I am not seeing it on the backend either.

Unlike Nano Banana it allows generating photos of children. Always fun to ask AI to imagine children of a couple but it's also kinda concerning that there might be terrible use cases.

If memory serves me, Nano Banana allows generating/editing photos of children. But anything that could be misinterpreted, gets blocked, even absolutely benign and innocent things (especially if you are asking to modify a photo that you upload there). So they allow, but they turn on the guardrails to a point that might not be useful in many situations.

Was it ever explained or understood why ChatGPT Images always has (had?) that yellow cast?

I never heard anything concrete offered. At least it's relatively easy to work around with a tone mapping / LUTs.

Even from their own curated examples, this looks quite a bit worse than nano banan in terms of preserving consistency on image edits.

I didn't have a good experience with NB. I am half Indian. Immediately changes my face to a prototypical Indian man every time I use it.

This tool is keeping my look the same.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not really, but there's a number of theories. The simplest one is that they "style tuned" the AI on human preference data, and this introduced a subtle bias for yellow. And I say "subtle" - but because that model would always "regenerate" an image when editing, it would introduce more and more of this yellow tint with each tweak or edit. Which has a way of making a "subtle" bias anything but.

There was also the theory that is was because they scanned a bunch of actual real books and book paper has a slight yellow hue.

That seems unlikely, as we didn't see anything like that with Dall-E, unless the auto regressive nature of gpt-image somehow was more influenced by it.

In the image they showed for the new one, the mechanic was checking a dipstick...that was still in the vehicle.

I really hope everyone is starting to get disillusioned with OpenAI. They're just charging you more and more for what? Shitty images that are easy to sniff out?

In that case, I have a startup for you to invest in. Its a bridge-selling app.
