TL;DR

GPT Image 2 sets a new bar for text rendering and photorealism but costs more than Gemini.

Key Takeaways

  • High-res 1024×1024 image costs $0.211; Gemini 4096×4096 equivalent runs ~$0.151
  • Text rendering in Chinese and complex scenes is best-in-class among current image models
  • C2PA watermarking present but strippable; realistic fake creation is now trivially accessible
