What you need to know
OpenAI CEO says GPT-5 will be a significant leap forward over its predecessor.
GPT-5 is currently in the early development phase and there's still a lot of work to do on it."
The model's official launch date remains unclear, though a report suggests it could be in the summer.
There's been a lot of hype around OpenAI launching its much-anticipated GPT-5 model . Many users expected the ChatGPT maker to ship the AI model during its Spring Update event. However, the company launched a new flagship GPT-4o model , described as magical by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
We don't know yet. We are optimistic, but we still have a lot of work to do on it.
OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman
While details about GPT-5's launch date remain slim, Altman says it'll be a "significant leap forward." Perhaps in comparison with its predecessor, GPT-4. In the past, Altman indicated GPT-4 "kind of sucks" and referred to the model as " mildly embarrassing at best ."
Altman further explained:
"I expect it to be a significant leap forward. A lot of the things that GPT-4 gets wrong, you know, can't do much in the way of reasoning, sometimes just sort of totally goes off the rails and makes a dumb mistake, like even a six-year-old would never make."
Altman's remarks about GPT-5 suggest the long-awaited model may be in the early development phase. This can be attributed to complex algorithmic and data issues, coupled with the scale of GPT-5.
The CEO compares the development of its LLMs to the iPhone. "The first iPhone was still pretty buggy, but it was good enough to be useful for people," added Altman.
GPT-4 is the dumbest model any of you will ever have to use again by a lot. It's important to ship early and often and we believe in iterative deployment.
However, Altman stated "You'll be happy to have a new device" if the revolution demands new hardware. The global PC shipment is on an upward trajectory with projections of an 8% growth by 2025 . Market analysts attribute this change to Windows 10's imminent death and the emergence of AI PCs . The economy is seemingly recovering after the COVID-19 pandemic, as more people are willing to make more IT-based investments.
