OpenAI has revealed that India is the largest market for its newly launched ChatGPT Images 2.0 model. The advanced text-to-image generation tool has quickly become a hit among Indian users, who are using it for more than just basic photo editing tasks. The app has become an integral part of India's internet culture and is particularly popular among young users exploring identity, aesthetics, and storytelling online.
In a blog, OpenAI said, “A week after OpenAI launched ChatGPT Images 2.0, Indian users are turning the tool into something far bigger than an AI photo editor.”
The company highlighted several emerging trends with the Images 2.0 model in India. The biggest trend emerging in India is using this to turn everyday photos into dramatic studio-style portraits.
“From turning selfies into anime posters and cinematic headshots, to generating tarot cards, fantasy newspaper covers, and “style me” fashion moodboards, ChatGPT’s latest image model is quickly becoming part of India’s internet culture, especially among young users experimenting with identity, aesthetics, and storytelling online,” said the company.
The new model is designed to handle far more complex image generation tasks: from accurately rendering text and multilingual prompts to creating highly detailed visuals with minimal instructions.
It is also OpenAI’s first image model with “thinking” capabilities, meaning it can reason through prompts, generate multiple distinct outputs, and even use web context in real time for smarter visual creation, said the company.
