Can AI understand your rough sketches?
ChatGPT just added a new sketch feature to its new Images 2.5 model, so I tried it with extremely simple sketches and short prompts to see how well it could understand my intention.
And honestly, I actually like it!
This can be helpful especially when you already have a specific pose or composition in mind and want to quickly turn that rough idea into something more refined.
If you’re curious, I included a quick process video in the comments.
Do you think this new feature could be useful in your workflow?

Tbf and honest, this is quite insane. the speed and accuracy of the output is great, and it delivers quite good results.

Turning a rough pose sketch into a refined image without losing the original composition is the actual killer use case here, going to try this on some old thumbnails.
Karina's avatar
Yes! it's so useful for me personally, let me know if it works well for you!

The sketch-to-image consistency is impressivethe simple gesture keeps the composition open while the lighting and palette carry through beautifully.
Karina's avatar
Agree, surprisingly it can understand simple sketch well!

The jump from that basic sketch to the final image is wild! This is a massive time-saver for storyboarding and quickly communicating art direction before a build.
Karina's avatar
Right? I wasnt expecting much so it was a pleasant surprise!
Jovanka's avatar
Oh, cool! I am going to try this today!
Karina's avatar
Nice! Tell me how it goes! :)

Wow, really nice. It will be very useful

Really impressive how a simple sketch can be transformed into a polished visual while keeping the original idea intact.
Karina's avatar
Agreed, and it works well with short prompts too!

Huge for rapid storyboarding. Turning a stick figure straight into composition saves hours of fighting with prompts.
Karina's avatar
Haha yes! It will save up so much credits too!

The test I'd want is an ambiguous sketch: does it keep your layout intent, or quietly substitute its own composition? That's where sketch-to-image tools usually stop being useful in a workflow.
Karina's avatar
So far I think it does try to keep the layout intent! Are you going to try it out?
