OpenAI to Launch GPT-5 in August, Blending O-Series with Latest Models

OpenAI is preparing to release its much-anticipated GPT-5 model as soon as August, signaling the next chapter in artificial intelligence development, according to sources cited by The Verge.

The update is expected to deliver a more versatile AI platform, integrating various specialized models under a unified architecture.

Unlike previous iterations, GPT-5 is designed as an interoperable AI system capable of leveraging distinct models—and thereby executing a wider array of tasks.

CEO Sam Altman previously confirmed that the o3 model would be incorporated into GPT-5’s architecture, as part of a broader initiative to streamline OpenAI’s existing suite of products.

Ultimately, the company intends to consolidate its o-series and GPT-series under a single, multifaceted system, allowing users to access a range of AI capabilities seamlessly.

While industry watchers anticipate a rollout in early August, the launch timeline could still shift. The company has a history of adjusting release dates in response to technical hurdles, scaling requirements, or developments among AI competitors.
