Alex da Cruz is a full-stack developer based in São Paulo, Brazil. He works with React, TypeScript and automation, and uses AI daily to solve real problems in code and operations — not as a demo. He has run an e-commerce operation end to end, and now builds and maintains the automation pipeline behind this blog. He writes about what he actually tests.
According to TechCrunch, OpenAI announced global shopping updates for ChatGPT, introducing a virtual try-on button and a favorites library. The system runs on the newly released ChatGPT Images 2.5 model, which promises lower latency, better texture rendering, and more reliable editing execution.
How does the virtual try-on work in practice?
Users can upload a selfie or a full-body photo directly into the chat interface. When browsing shopping results, a new try-on option applies the selected garment onto the user's uploaded image. Alternatively, shoppers can upload web screenshots or celebrity outfits to find and test available items.
What changes for e-commerce on Monday morning?
Retailers and marketers must factor AI assistants into their visual discovery funnels. While Google launched virtual try-on features previously, OpenAI's conversational integration combines style advice, image search, and direct try-ons in one thread, altering how consumers evaluate purchases before visiting online stores.
