I remember making the left image with Nano Banana 2 a while ago and thinking, "This is insanely realistic!" Now that GPT-Image 2.5 Sunburst & Flare are live on Arcads, I tried the same prompt again… and wow 🤯 The jump in realism is insane. The skin texture, the lighting, the tiny details that usually give AI away - it’s wild how much more natural everything looks. Which one would you pick? 👀
