[Core Function] GPT Image 1.5 Edit is a versatile image-to-image editing and merging model. [Strengths] It excels at complex utility editing tasks, including multi-image merging (up to 16 images), transparent background support, and precise control over how strictly the model adheres to the input image (fidelity control). [Best For] Highly recommended for: merging reference images, editing UI assets, generating variations with strict shape preservation, and creating transparent cutouts. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you require 2K or 4K high-resolution outputs, as it is limited to standard resolutions. [Routing] Use this model specifically when the user provides multiple images to combine, requires transparency, or explicitly asks to 'keep the exact shape' of the original image (fidelity control). Otherwise, use GPT Image 2 Edit.
