Potential Revelation of GPT-5 in OpenAI Live Stream

Important Announcement: OpenAI has announced a live stream scheduled for August 7 at 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT / 6 PM GMT. The company is widely expected to unveil its highly anticipated revolutionary model, GPT-5, during this event. This official announcement confirms the rumors and speculations circulating in the AI community about the next generation of language models.

What to Expect from GPT-5?

Performance Expectations: Forecasts indicate that GPT-5 will come with enhanced speed and improved efficiency, but the most significant innovation may lie in new interaction methods with the model. With the increasing popularity of "Agents" in ChatGPT, GPT-5 is likely to offer an automatic model selection feature for the most suitable task. This means users will not need to guess the best model, as GPT-5 will understand the request and internally direct it to provide more accurate and relevant responses for various tasks, making it easier for users to get better results.

New Releases and Models from OpenAI

Steps towards Openness: In addition to the anticipation for GPT-5, OpenAI recently made an important step towards the open community by releasing two open-weight AI models, gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b. These models, licensed under Apache 2.0 license, are designed for complex logical reasoning and agentic tasks. Both models are based on a "Mixture-of-Experts" architecture, making them computationally efficient, as the gpt-oss-20b model can be run locally on consumer computers. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman hinted that the company has "a lot of stuff to release in the next couple of months - new models, products, features, and more." The live stream on August 7 might just be the beginning of a series of upcoming announcements and new features. However, Altman warned of potential challenges related to server capacity, which could mean that the availability of GPT-5 to all users might take some time after the official announcement.
