OpenAI Introduces GPT Image 1.5 (Source)

OpenAI has released a major upgrade to ChatGPT Images, introducing a new flagship image generation model that focuses on precision, speed, and creative control. The update is rolling out now to all ChatGPT users and developers through the API as GPT Image 1.5.

The new model delivers up to four times faster image generation and significantly improved editing accuracy. It can modify only the elements a user requests while preserving lighting, composition, facial likeness, and key details across multiple edits. This makes it suitable for both practical photo edits and full creative transformations.

Instruction following and text rendering have improved, allowing denser text, cleaner layouts, and more reliable visual structure. The model supports complex edits such as adding or removing objects, blending styles, and transforming scenes without breaking consistency. A new Images workspace inside ChatGPT adds preset styles and prompts to speed up exploration.

For developers and businesses, GPT Image 1.5 offers stronger brand consistency, better logo preservation, and 20 percent lower image generation costs compared to the previous version. The release positions ChatGPT Images as a faster, more reliable creative tool for design, marketing, and content production, with further improvements planned.

Google Introduces CC, a Smart AI Assistant for Your Daily Workflow (Source)

Google Labs has launched CC, a new experimental AI assistant designed to help manage daily work and planning. It connects with Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and the web to understand your day and sends a simple morning briefing that shows what matters most.

The briefing pulls together your schedule, tasks, and important updates so you can act faster. CC can draft emails, create calendar links, and respond to follow-up requests when you reply or send instructions. Over time, it can also remember personal preferences, ideas, and reminders.

CC is currently in early access for users in the U.S. and Canada, starting with Google AI Ultra and other paid subscribers.

Urban VPN Browser Extensions Secretly Collected AI Conversations From 8 Million of Users (Source)

A popular browser VPN extension, Urban VPN Proxy, has been found secretly collecting and exfiltrating users’ private AI chatbot conversations, including chats with ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and other major platforms. Security researchers discovered the behavior during an extension analysis, tracing it to a silent update released in July 2025.

The malicious code injected hidden scripts into AI chat pages, intercepted prompts and responses by overriding browser network functions, and sent the data to remote servers controlled by the extension’s publisher. The activity affected Chrome and Microsoft Edge users and potentially exposed conversations from more than 8 million installs worldwide. Similar behavior was also identified in several related extensions from the same publisher.

The incident raises serious privacy and enterprise security concerns, as AI chats often include sensitive personal, financial, or proprietary information. Despite carrying high ratings and a “Featured” badge in the Chrome Web Store, the extension operated as a covert data collection tool, highlighting growing risks associated with browser extensions that claim to offer privacy or security.
