Trying to keep up with the open AI race

The Rundown: OpenAI just released GPT Image 1.5, a major update to Chat GPT’s image generator that creates visuals up to 4x faster, improves text rendering, and maintains consistency across edits — arriving as an answer to Google’s recent creative momentum with Nano Banana Pro.

The details:

  • Image 1.5 brings significantly upgraded generation speeds, with the model also now able to preserve faces, lighting, and composition across edits.

  • Text rendering also gets a big improvement, with 1.5 handling long content, infographics, and varied text sizes compared to GPT-image-1’s rampant issues.

  • The new model moves to first place on both Artificial Analysis and LM Arena’s text-to-image and editing leaderboards.

  • OpenAI also released a new dedicated creative panel, joining the typical chat-based workflow to offer users quick-start templates and curated style options.

Why it matters: Despite GPT-image-1 being a viral success at the time, it doesn’t take long to fall far behind the frontier curve — making this new upgrade very overdue. 1.5 delivers on the benchmarks and, like the recent GPT-5.2 release, brings OpenAI at least on par with Google’s buzzy releases heading into the new year.

Thank you for reading.

Criminalizes the seizure of oil tankers:

 Like I've said before, Donald Trump's dictatorship will create a world 3 with revenge. Criminalizes the seizure of oil tankers: Venezuela rushes to criminalize tanker seizures after Trump threats. Story by Regina Garcia Cano. Venezuela’s National Assembly has approved a measure that criminalizes the seizure of oil tankers and cargo ships. The bill, introduced, debated and approved within two days, makes illegal a broad range of activities that can hinder navigation and commerce in the South American country. The legislation comes after U.S. forces seized two tankers carrying Venezuelan oil in international waters in recent weeks. The seizures are the latest strategy in the dictatorship of President Donald Trump's four-month pressure campaign on Venezuela's leader Nicolás Maduro. The tankers are part of what the Trump administration has said is a fleet Venezuela uses to evade U.S. economic sanctions. The unicameral assembly, which is controlled by Venezuela's ruling...

We are on the edge of world war111

 Part of this article is from MSN News.  Something that the people are not ready for is world war111.  This has been heating up for a while; there have been signs, but nothing that bad till Donald Trump became the president of the U.S. We are on the edge of world war111, and nobody can reverse the disaster that is about to happen with the Trump dictatorship. Pentagon report revealing China is readying missiles sparks WWIII fear, Chinese People's Liberation Army. A brand new report from the Pentagon has revealed that China has armed over 100 long-range nuclear missiles which could reach the US in an all-out war.  The December 23 report to Congress found China's military has placed more than 100 DF-31 missiles, which are powerful intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), into underground launch sites called silos.  These missiles use solid fuel, meaning they're ready to launch quickly without needing extra preparation, unlike older liquid-fueled ones that take ...

Antibacterial soaps are not more effective,

Health concern partial report by Alisha  McDarris Published Dec 23, 2025 10:00 AM EST Ditch the antibacterial soap this cold and flu season! The most dreaded time of year rolls around every winter like clockwork: cold and flu season.  The time when hand washing increases, sanitizing surfaces intensifies, and old and young schedule regular seasonal vaccines in an attempt to prevent sickness from descending on their households. But there’s one piece of ammunition you should absolutely skip this season—and all year-round—because it does more harm than good: antibacterial hand soap. While hand washing is vitally important to curb the spread of disease, soap advertised as antibacterial not only doesn’t protect you better from disease, but it has far-reaching and possibly harmful effects on your health and the environment. Here’s why to ditch it and use plain soap instead. How does soap even work? Regular soap can come in many forms: foaming liquid, bars, and gels. It is a little mo...
