The AI community is buzzing with excitement as we approach the anticipated release of GPT-5, OpenAI’s next language model. Speculations suggest this “amazing new model” could debut as early as late 2024 or early 2025.
At the 2024 World Economic Forum in Davos, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman dropped hints about GPT-5’s capabilities. He described the upcoming model as “smarter,” with significant improvements in reasoning, reliability, and the ability to integrate text, images, and video. GPT-5 might also introduce autonomous AI agents that can manage real-world tasks without human intervention.
Read on to learn everything we know about GPT 5 so far and what we can expect from the next-generation model.
“GPT-4 is the dumbest model any of you will ever have to use again.” — Sam Altman
GPT-5 is the forthcoming iteration of OpenAI’s series of Generative Pre-trained Transformers, a type of machine learning model specifically designed for natural language processing tasks.
AI industry experts expect GPT-5 to be released in 2024 or early 2025, which aligns with OpenAI’s typical pattern of releasing major updates approximately every 1-2 years.
This timeframe also fits with the incremental improvements seen in previous models, such as GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo.
GPT-5 is expected to have enhanced capabilities in understanding and processing natural language, making interactions even more intuitive and human-like.
When Bill Gates interviewed Sam Altman on his podcast in January, Sam said that “multimodality” would be a significant breakthrough for GPT within the next 5 years.
In AI, multimodality refers to the integration and simultaneous processing of data from multiple sources, such as text, images, audio, and video. This approach helps create models that understand and interpret diverse information, making predictions more accurate and reliable.
As such, GPT-5 is likely to integrate better multimodal processing, allowing it to understand and generate responses based on a combination of text, images, and possibly other data formats, such as video processing capabilities.
Expanded context windows refer to an AI model’s enhanced ability to remember and use information. While GPT-4o has a context window of 128,000 and can already answer general knowledge questions at an 87.2% accuracy, GPT-5 is likely to support expanded context windows, allowing it to process and remember more information from previous interactions, leading to even more relevant and accurate responses. In simpler terms, GPT-5 will be even more intelligent and coherent.

The subscription pricing for OpenAI’s GPT models has evolved with each iteration. Below, we have compiled all the subscription pricing for all past GPT models:
Sam Altman has claimed that the ultimate goal for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is to create an AI system that is "highly autonomous, capable of outperforming humans at most economically valuable work." However, whether GPT-5 or any specific iteration of GPT will achieve AGI remains uncertain, as AGI encompasses a broader scope of capabilities beyond what current models like GPT-4 or GPT-5 might exhibit.

GPT-5 is expected to improve accuracy and reduce errors through enhanced training on larger and more diverse datasets, refining its language understanding and generation capabilities.
GPT-5 will likely handle multimodal inputs by integrating text with other data types like images and audio, enabling it to understand and generate responses based on a combination of different input modalities.
OpenAI's web crawler supports GPT-5 development by collecting vast amounts of data from the internet, which can be used to train and fine-tune the model on real-world information and scenarios.
People are excited and curious about GPT-5's announcement, interested in how AI can advance and its impact, though they're also concerned about ethics and the influence of such powerful technology.
