  • OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, described GPT-5 as akin to a 'PhD-level expert,' particularly highlighting its ability to generate instantaneous software.

  • OpenAI is particularly emphasising GPT-5's application in businesses, with Microsoft also planning to integrate the system across its products.
