I Tested GPT Images 2.0 for YouTube Thumbnails

I spent a lot of time testing GPT Images 2.0 as a real thumbnail workflow tool. Not just making pretty AI images. I wanted to see what happens when you actually use it for YouTube thumbnails: faces, text, products, references, edits, stylization, and all the weird problems that show up after multiple generations. This is not a technical GPT Images 2.0 review. It’s more of a practical stress test from someone who actually makes content. Some things impressed me. Some things completely fell apart. And the biggest difference seems to be whether you use AI as a magic button or as part of a controlled creative workflow.
