OpenAI ships Images 2.6 with GIFs and faster API variants
OpenAI launched Images 2.6 in ChatGPT, Codex, and the API, saying generation is 50% faster and adding GIF animation. The API offers GPT-Image-2.6 Flare and Sunburst; Flare can generate in as little as six seconds at low quality. OpenAI says people now create 4 billion images per week across ChatGPT, Codex, and the API. New API controls include image markup, SVG export, and a complexity parameter for planning effort.
Why it matters: Faster iteration and GIF support matter for marketing and product teams shipping visuals. Check Flare versus Sunburst pricing before wiring production edit loops.
