In summary:

* GPT-4.5 will be the last non-chain of thought model to be released.

* GPT-5 is (GPT-4.5 + o3) with multi-modal and reasoning.

* Plus subscribers will be able to run GPT-5 at a higher level of intelligence.

* Pro subscribers will be able to run GPT-5 at an even higher level of intelligence. These models will incorporate voice, canvas, search, deep research, and more.

If you are wondering when this will be released to (dis)replace a lot of economically viable jobs? This year. [0].

The big question should not be about when this will be released. It should be why is he announcing this *now* and what is Sam still not telling you.

You better start preparing for 2030 if I were you.

Very interesting announcement. GPT-4.5 being the last non-reasoning model seems like a tacit admission that the old scaling paradigms are exhausted.

Also, I wonder if any of these decisions around GPT-5 are intended to make it harder for competitors to distill their models?

"weeks/months" I think referred to GPT-4.5 in weeks, GPT-5 in months

"It should be why is he announcing this now and what is Sam still not telling you." - I don't think there is anything mysterious here? People constantly spam him on Twitter asking for roadmap/wen next release.

I am *really* hoping this is stronger than sonnet.

It’s hard not to frame these announcements in the context of broader competition like Deepseek or Musks bid to buy OpenAI.

The rate of progress and the rate of announcement and speculation are not the same I think and we should expect all kinds of marketing tactics as part of the discourse.
