OpenAI expected to unveil gpt-image-2 today, enhancing AI image generation

The company shared what looks like a screenshot of ChatGPT running in Chrome on macOS.

However, the image caption insists that this is not actually a screenshot.

Instead, OpenAI appears to be teasing its new gpt-image-2 AI image generation technology. In correct, OpenAI has greatly improved on generating text and realistic UI for image generation from text prompts.
