OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced that GPT-5 is currently in training and is expected to launch in mid-2025. Unveiled during OpenAI Dev Day, GPT-5 aims to unify OpenAI’s o-series and GPT-series models into a comprehensive system capable of handling a wide array of tasks efficiently.
Key enhancements include long-context understanding, improved memory, and agents-as-a-service capabilities. Altman highlighted that GPT-5 will integrate various OpenAI technologies, including the o3 reasoning model, which will no longer be released as a standalone model.
Upon release, ChatGPT users will have different levels of access to GPT-5’s varying intelligence settings based on their subscription plans.
