New Model Available: GPT-Image-2.6-Sunburst OpenAI released GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst, an image generation and editing model that generates about 50% faster than GPT Image 2.5 while targeting dense compositions, text-heavy layouts, and detail-consistent edits at medium or high quality. The model is served by 1 provider and supports structured outputs, with quality tiers from low to max, transparent backgrounds, and custom sizes in multiples of 16 pixels at aspect ratios from 1:3 to 3:1. GPT Image 2.6 adds a complexity setting controlling how much the model plans before rendering, markup-guided edits, animated GIF output, and SVG output, with the listing recommending Flare when speed matters more than fine detail. GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst is served by 1 provider and supports structured outputs. GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst is OpenAI's image generation and editing model optimized for detail: dense compositions, text-heavy layouts, and edits that keep details consistent from one edit to the next at medium or high quality, generating about 50% faster than GPT Image 2.5. It takes text and image inputs and produces images, with quality tiers from low to max, transparent backgrounds, and custom sizes in multiples of 16 pixels at aspect ratios from 1:3 to 3:1.
