Also: I tried ChatGPT Images 2.0: A fun, huge leap - and surprisingly useful for real work

As the following chart shows, the release cadence for OpenAI releases has sped up dramatically, most likely because AI coding has significantly reduced OpenAI's development time.

That chart was generated entirely by ChatGPT 5.5 Thinking using Images 2.0. All I did was tell the AI that I wanted to visualize the release cadence between GPT releases and wanted it presented in the ZDNET brand style. I also provided a PNG of the ZDNET logo.

The whole process, including some minor corrections, took less than 10 minutes. I have been researching data and creating professional-looking informational charts like this by hand since the invention of computer graphics. Something like this would take at least two hours to create, not 10 minutes.
