OpenAI Restores GIF Generator With 1.56 Million Pixel Budget

OpenAI has brought back the GIF generator with editing capabilities, marking a major development in artificial intelligence technology. This tool enables the creation of animated images, expanding the possibilities for visual content.

The effective budget for a single animation is approximately 1.5–1.56 million pixels. This is an experimentally verified characteristic of the model's current operational mode, which is not documented in OpenAI's official documentation.

While the company's official specifications state a resolution of 1024 by 1024 pixels, real-world tests reveal a maximum value of 883 by 883 pixels. Users can choose between longer videos at lower resolution and short clips at maximum quality.
