# Images 2.0

## Profile
OpenAI's updated image generation tool, released alongside [[entity-gpt-5-5|GPT-5.5]]. Used to generate **high-fidelity visual mockups** that can then be fed into [[entity-codex|Codex]] for implementation.

## Role in the Vault
- **Taste** step of [[framework-reference-ui-workflow]] — generates the design target.
- The visual half of [[action-mockup-to-code]].
- Part of the broader argument in [[concept-system-matters]] that OpenAI's edge comes from a multi-tool ecosystem, not just better weights.

## External Verifiability
**Unconfirmed.** OpenAI's documented image stack as of the enrichment cutoff centers on DALL·E 3. No 'Images 2.0' release is publicly verifiable. Treat as speculative branding for a hypothetical successor.
