Powerful System
According to a report in The Verge, OpenAI’s chief executive Sam Altman, below, plans to launch the model early next month.
The model, which is understood to combine OpenAI’s o-series and GPT-series into a single, powerful system, was expected to be launched this summer. It is understood that the delay was due to the need for additional testing.
The new model will reportedly be “positioned as an AI system that incorporates distinct models and can perform different functions as opposed to just a single AI model.”
The Microsoft (MSFT)-backed startup did not comment, although as reported by TipRanks earlier this year the company is keen to simplify its offerings.
Altman has said that this isn’t just about making an AI that can handle more tasks; it’s about creating one that thinks more deeply before it responds. This means we can expect future versions to not only be more efficient but also to offer richer, more thoughtful interactions.
Reasoning Skills
In addition, GPT-5 is more than just a simple update. It brings in the reasoning skills from the o-series, particularly the o3 model, which means it’s going to be smarter and more aware of the context it’s working in. This should help cut down on errors and boost performance.
The essence of the system is that it should be a smarter version of what we have seen before and make it easier and more useful for users from employees to students or ordinary folk.
In fact, Altman wants to make a free copy of GPT-5 available to everybody. “I am very interested in what it means to give everybody on Earth a free copy of GPT-5, running for them all the time,” he said.
But let’s not get too carried away. The Verge report did have some caveats.
“While GPT-5 looks likely to debut in early August, OpenAI’s planned release dates often shift to respond to development challenges, server capacity issues, or even rival AI model announcements and leaks,” the report said.
