OpenAI is displaying what Sam Altman Describe as one ‘Great update’ and a ‘Significant step’ On the way to a AGI or general artificial intelligence. GPT-5 It is the new Llm or large language model that enhances the most popular chatbot on the market, already with 700 million weekly usersas stated by the manager in the presentation broadcast through YouTube.
OpenAi says that with GPT-5, Chatgpt is smarter, fast and less prone to hallucinating and giving inappropriate answers. The expected thing in an update, but that does not seem a particularly large jump towards that AGI, although it does the most effective tool, as has been demonstrated in the cases of use presented.
‘GPT-3 He felt like he was talking to a high school student. You could ask you a question. You may get a correct answer, perhaps something incredible. With GPT-4 you felt like you were talking to a University student. In GPT-5for the first time, you really feel like you are talking to a Doctorate expert‘, Altman said in streaming that has begun at 7:00 p.m. in Spain and has finished an hour and a quarter later.

GPT-5 family models and who can use them
GPT-4.5 Disappears from the options of the language model selectorthat they can use payment accounts, to give way to GPT-5, although at the time of writing this information it still does not appear as an option.
It is not a single language model, but A family composed of four. The difference with previous iterations of the chatbot is that It will not be the user who has to select them manuallybut the system will do it automatically for it. This is eliminated, for example, the need to choose between faster or more in depth responses, although it can force the second by introducing an instruction as ‘Think in depth’ In the prompt.
The GPT-5 variants are the following:
- GPT-5: It is the main and most advanced model. It is available for all chatgpt users, Also free accountsbut the only ones who can make unlimited use will be those of the subscription Pro. It is the first time that Chatgpt’s most advanced model reaches free users while paying.
- GPT-5 mini: Smaller version, but Openai says it is highly capable. Free users will start with GPT-5 And when reaching its use limit they will pass to GPT-5 Mini.
- GPT-5 PRO (Extended Thinking): Offers a Extended thought For more detailed and reliable answers. Available for subscribers Pro.
- Nano GPT-5: Variant available through the API25 times more affordable than GPT-5. Adequate for applications sensitive to latency and cost.
The novelties of GPT-5
An aspect that has especially highlighted OpenAi is its ability Writing codewith several examples shown. ‘This is the best model in the world in coding’Altman has assured.
GPT-5 also stands out in Multimodal Reasoning (MMU)surpassing previous models and ‘Even most human experts’and offers exceptional performance in mathematical reasoning, they affirm.
Openai also points out a significant improvement in reliability and facticityreducing errors. GPT-5 has been trained using previous models (such as GPT-3) to create a ‘Synthetic curriculum’ of high quality that teaches you complex issues more effectively than the gross data of the web.
As to personalizationnow chatgpt allows:
- Change the Chats colorswhich gives an appearance similar to messaging apps.
- Modify the Chatbot personality: more comprehensive, professional/concise or sarcastic.
- Use one improved voice function which sounds more natural and translates between languages fluently.
- A Improved memory that learns more about the user over time, taking advantage of long -term information in their answers.
Soon, GPT-5 will have Access to Gmail and Google Calendar To help in the planning of tasks and schedules, such as the creation of lists or the identification of unanswered emails.
According to Openai, GPT-5 is the Best model for health use casesachieving the best score in Healthbench (An evaluation created with 250 doctors). The company has presented a real case in which it helped a patient to understand a biopsy report, make decisions about treatments and advocate for their own care, acting as a ‘Fellow of Thought’.
Use cases shown with GPT-5
Openai has shown various demos To illustrate the new chatgpt capabilities in coding, writing and learning.
- In physicsexplained the Bernoulli effect and its role in the generation of support in the flight of an airplane. To do this, he created a visualization Interactive SVG wearing Canvas And he wrote about 400 lines of code (HTML, React, Tailwind) in two minutes. The user could adjust the air speed and the angle of attack of an aircraft in the visualization, whose finish was polished.
- In writingGPT-4 and GPT-5 were asked to write a farewell letter to previous models. GPT-5’s was more convincing and rich in nuances. According to Openai, your answers feel ‘Less as AI and more like talking with a friend of high intellectual and emotional coefficient’ ‘.
- In languagescreated one Web app To learn French with daily monitoring, cards, questionnaires and A game inspired by Snake: A mouse that says words in French when eating cheese. Again, with a finish that seemed professional.
- In Advanced codingcorrected an error in the SDK of Pythonexplained his plan, searched in the code, read archives and clearly communicated his process.
- Also generated a Financial Dashboard For a financial director of a startup, detecting and correcting errors automatically.
- Finally, he developed a 3D game in a castlewith guards patrolling, horses, minigame of balloons and sound effects.
