  "account": "OpenAI has introduced a new feature called Images 2.6 for ChatGPT, Codex, and the API, allowing users to generate and edit personalized GIFs. This update was rolled out on November 4, 2026. Users can create GIFs by providing a prompt or uploading a photo. The GIF creation process is reportedly 50% faster compared to the previous version. After generating a GIF, users can edit the image by adjusting its speed or making changes through ChatGPT's \"Describe edits\" feature. Alternatively, users can also edit the GIF by marking up individual frames or using a visual editor. The new feature also enables users to upload a minimal sketch or reference image for creating a GIF. With Images 2.6, developers have the option to choose between Flare and Sunburst for image generation, depending on their requirements for speed, detail, and consistency. The updated feature is available to all ChatGPT and Codex users without a subscription, but the number of images that can be generated may depend on the user's subscription level.",
