4o generates new images that try to be close but not exact it doesn't edit existing ones so wouldn't be much use for this.
I think it's because Geminis nano banano is better than 4o imagegen at creating and editing images from instructions
Valid question, as they already have a partnership with OpenAI to use ChatGPT in Siri. I personally use GPT for illustrations and Nano Banana for photo edits (Midjourney for realistic photos).
As an aside, perhaps they're using GPT/Codex for coding. Did anyone else notice the use of emojis and → in their code?
Someone here shared an interesting comparison of models performances, and Gemini does seem much better
Someone who works in AI told me they think that was trained in as a "watermark", apparently the same is true with the em-dashes, to "ease people into AI" or something.
