OpenAI has officially unveiled GPT-5, marking a significant leap forward in artificial intelligence capabilities. The new model delivers performance improvements that CEO Sam Altman described as "transformative for the industry."

Key improvements include

  • 10x faster inference speed compared to GPT-4
  • Native multimodal processing for text, images, and video
  • Enhanced reasoning capabilities with 40% better accuracy on complex problems
  • Reduced hallucinations by 60% according to internal testing

The model will be available through OpenAI's API starting July 27, with ChatGPT Plus subscribers getting early access. Pricing remains unchanged at current GPT-4 rates.

"This isn't just an incremental update," said Altman during today's livestream announcement. "GPT-5 represents a fundamental breakthrough in how AI processes and understands information."

Early beta testers report significant improvements in code generation, mathematical reasoning, and creative writing tasks. The model can now process 30-minute video files and generate detailed summaries in under 10 seconds.
