OpenAI has released Images 2.6. With it, ChatGPT creates images faster and can also make them move as GIFs.
OpenAI can now turn a sketch or an ad into a moving GIF
OpenAI has released Images 2.6, a new version of its image-making model. The model is available in ChatGPT, Codex and the API. The API is the connection that lets developers use the model in their own programs. As of today, Images 2.6 is available worldwide in ChatGPT and Codex, for all plans. That includes the Netherlands. According to OpenAI, the model makes images 50% faster than before.
The biggest news is animated GIFs. You can make a brand mascot, a sketch or a product photo move. OpenAI says characters, products and brand details stay the same with every edit.
What does this mean for your work? If you work in marketing or content, you can turn an existing ad into a moving version in ChatGPT. You can animate a brand mascot for a campaign or make reactions and memes for social media. An animated storyboard shows how a character moves, even before you make a video. You don't need a finished design: a simple sketch is enough to start with.
Background for subscribersChatGPT now makes animated GIFs, short clips that play again and again, and this works with any plan. You can use it to turn an existing ad into a moving version, or to animate a simple sketch without a finished design. According to OpenAI, the model is 50% faster, but there is no independent test.
More time for high-risk AI: map now where AI helps decide things about people
The strictest AI rules only start on 2 December 2027. This gives organizations time to prepare. A practical first step is an overview of all the places where AI helps decide things about people. Think of HR, education and credit. For each use, write down which tool it is, who uses it and which decision depends on it. This way you can quickly see later where extra rules apply. Smaller organizations are not on their own. The European Commission and the member states must give practical support to small and medium-sized businesses.
