Amidst fierce competition with Google and their new Gemini 3 model, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced an internal "red code," calling for rapid improvement of the chatbot's functions. The new version received a separate section in the application and on the website, which finally positions ChatGPT as a universal tool combining search, a voice assistant, and a media file generator.
A key technological achievement was the AI's ability to maintain stable lighting, composition, and human appearance even after numerous edits.
Now, users can easily change drawing styles or add details without losing the overall image quality. In addition, the model is significantly better at generating small text for infographics and clearly reproducing a large number of faces in one shot, which was previously a weakness of previous versions.
