Tested 6 Oct 2026 in ChatGPT built-in image generation (underlying model identifier not exposed)
Test settings
Exact website default prompt; one generated output; synthetic reference photograph supplied; WebP export quality 88, original dimensions retained.
Variability
Single run reviewed visually; repeatability not tested. AI output, hands, expressions, lighting and likeness may vary. The heart trail is visible, but it appears detached from the foreground handheld sparkler; motion continuity is not physically reliable.
Prompt
