AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

OpenAI announced ChatGPT Images 2.5 on Tuesday and is adding a new way to tell ChatGPT what you want it to make an image of: by drawing a doodle. With a new feature called Sketch, you can just draw something right inside ChatGPT and then tell ChatGPT how you want it to make an image […]

This feature lowers the barrier for creating AI-generated images by enabling users to communicate visual ideas through rough sketches instead of relying solely on text descriptions. It expands the creative possibilities and accessibility of AI image generation tools.

Creators may want to watch whether this becomes a usable production tool or changes content workflows.
