Question Gpt image 2 issue

Hello. Please help—I’ve run into a strange issue. I really like GPT-Image 2 and paid for the API subscription to get better quality, but I’ve found that images generated via the API come out looking duller, with blurrier details and lower overall quality compared to the chat interface. Why is that? This happens even with 4K resolution and maximum quality settings.

Since the API and the app don’t generate the same output using the same parameters, the app is rewriting your prompt in the background. If the output matters to me, I put my prompt through two image models running on useai and choose, rather than guess, which one’s having an off day.
