Same experience on my end. It's crazy what the latest version can pull off, with reference images, text, etc.

so both of you do not understand what Photoshop is really used for.
Do you? I somehow doubt it.

Can you provide an example of something "Photoshop is really used for" that ChatGPT Images 2.0 is completely incapable of doing?

- Keeping a human face exactly the same while removing imperfections and being able to make small, purely non-destructive edits in series.

- Export in very high quality without estimative upscaling.

Are you up to date on frontier capabilities?

ChatGPT's image pipeline used to completely suck at sequential edits - i.e. "compounding piss filter" and more. The new Images 2.0 one is a generational leap over that. Have you tried it? Do you still have issues?

Not sure what top export resolution is in the system now, but they did bump it up some.

What remains is no true native CMYK? But that is a somewhat niche capability. Not sure if you can partially compensate in "pre" by prompting for print-ready images to keep gamuts constrained and get reasonable outcomes from a naive RGB->CMYK conversion.

I used to hire people to do photoshop for me. So yes, I kind of get the idea.

I don't hire them anymore. Can you guess why?

So tell us instead of being vague And condescending?
