Will we see a sizable leap in capabilities when GPT-5 class models start to emerge? It’s hard to say for sure—anyone in a position to know that likely works for an AI lab with a multi-billion dollar valuation that hinges on the answer to that equation, so they’re not reliable sources of information until the models themselves are revealed.
