Introduction to GPT-5
A new version of Chatgpt has arrived, with Openai CEO Sam Altman promising it will have smarts at a Ph.D level. Openai announced the publication of GPT-5, which it calls the "intelligent test, the fastest and most useful model". The artificial intelligence company that brought the world Chatgpt says that its latest version of the AI-powered chatbot will be more precise, contain fewer hallucinations, and offer more articulated writing functions for composing emails and reports.
Key Features of GPT-5
GPT-5 will also be characterized by its coding and answering of health-related questions, the company said in a blog post. A basic version of the new model is available free of charge, with paid options for higher use. On a call to reporters, Altman compared GPT-5 to an expert at a Ph.D.-level, and said the new chatbot is also "the biggest individual step forward" Openai has made in global access.
History of Chatgpt
The announcement is the next step in AI development for Openai, which introduced the first iteration of Chatgpt in 2022. The technology quickly gained the fascination of the tech industry and the public for its ability to generate human-like answers to questions and inquiries. According to the company, the service now has over 700 million weekly users.
How GPT-5 Differs from Previous Models
GPT-5 offers more precise answers in a shorter time frame than previous models, said executives during a press call. "You really get the best of both worlds," Nick Turley, product manager at Chatgpt, told reporters on the call. "You have the reason if it has to argue, but you don’t have to wait that long." The answers from GPT-5 are about 45% less likely to contain factual mistakes than GPT-4, and about 80% less likely to contain objective errors than Openai’s O3 model.
New Features and Improvements
Openai has also strengthened Chatgpt’s coding skills, so users can create websites, apps, and games from scratch. Altman used GPT-5 in a demo to create another large voice model in less than 5 minutes. He called the ability of the new chatbot to write code on demand its "superpower", and added that progress would have been "unimaginable" at an earlier time. The new model will also help answer health-related questions, potential concerns, and help users understand their doctor’s test results.
Pricing and Availability
According to Openai, users around the world can access Chatgpt-5 free of charge. The company offers a variety of paid options based on usage limits, including Pro, Plus, Team/Enterprise/Edu, and Free access to GPT-5 and GPT-5 Mini. The subscription models are designed to provide users with more capabilities and higher usage limits, depending on their needs.
