CEO Sam Altman was surprised this week Announce On X/Twitter, the company is switching planned release schedules. Next chatgpt model What we can expect to see is the O3 and O4-Mini, which will be launched in the next few weeks. But that means our next major overhaul of Chatgpt’s GPT-5 will be postponed until later this year.
Plan changes: After all, we will release O3 and O4-Mini in a few weeks and then complete the GPT-5 in a few months.
There are many reasons, but the most exciting thing is that we will be able to make the GPT-5 much better than we originally did…– Sam Altman (@sama) April 4, 2025
The news is a reversal of the February announcement that Openai is integrating O3 and other technologies into the upcoming ChatGpt-5 model, which means O3 will no longer have its own release.
Meanwhile, you can use Chatgpt O3-Mini. This is a smaller variant of O3, and we can get some clues from this model about what we can expect in O3. The O3-Mini model is an inference model, which means it “thinks” the prompts before responding and better solves complex problems. Free and paid CHATGPT users can try O3-Mini, which is also considered DeepSeek’s competitorsopen source AI that emitted a huge splash earlier this year. We don’t know much about O4-Mini – it’s with 4o-mini – But this should be the next generation outside of O3.
There are many other updates that can keep people busy while waiting. We also hope the company releases its first Open model. Openai is not transparent (though its name) about what happens during the creation and training of its model, so the release of the model will also be a big step. Open, O3 and O4-Mini models are the company’s attempt to stay competitive amid tough competition, including China’s AIS DeepSeek.
Chatgpt has one too Native image generatorit is so popular that At a moment of loss GPU for service. Soon, the trend to create AI images mimics the style of Studio Ghibli (famous movies like Spirit and Ponyo). Altman even changed his X/Twitter profile picture to his own version of the Ghibli style. However, Studio Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki is well known to oppose generated AI.
