A new version of ChatGPT has arrived that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman promises will have Ph.D-level smarts.
OpenAI on Thursday announced the release of GPT‑5, which it calls its “smartest, fastest and most useful model yet.”
The artificial intelligence company that brought the world ChatGPT says its latest version of the AI-powered chatbot will be more accurate, have fewer hallucinations and offer more articulate writing capabilities for composing emails and reports, for example. GPT-5 will also excel at coding and answering health-related questions, the company said in a blog post.
A basic version of the new model is available for free, with paid options for higher usage also available.
On a call with reporters Wednesday previewing the new chatbot, Altman likened GPT-5 to a Ph.D.-level expert. The new chatbot is also “the biggest single step forward” that OpenAI has taken in worldwide accessibility, Altman said.
The announcement marks the next step in AI development for OpenAI, which launched the first iteration of GPT in 2022. The technology quickly captured the fascination of the tech industry and the public for its ability to generate human-like responses to questions and requests. The service now has over 700 million weekly users, according to the company.

As part of the new model, OpenAI is also reigning in ChatGPT’s flattery. In its blog post, the company said GPT‑5 is “less effusively agreeable” and that it will use “fewer unnecessary emojis.”
OpenAI has also stepped up ChatGPT’s coding abilities, allowing users to build websites, apps and games from scratch. In a demo during Wednesday’s call, Altman used GPT-5 to create a web app in less than 5 minutes.
Altman called the new chatbot’s ability to write code on demand its “superpower,” adding that the advancement would have been “unimaginable at any previous point in history.”
Asked about how the technology might impact the livelihood of human programmers, Altman said he thought the technology would actually create more job opportunities for as demand for software rises.
