GPT Image
OpenAI's first standalone text-to-image model. Best-in-class typography rendering at the time of release — making it well-suited to posters, packaging mockups, and text-heavy designs — though GPT Image 1.5 and 2 supersede it on photorealism and instruction-following. Still worth picking when you want the original GPT Image aesthetic for typographic work specifically.
