It’s finally here. After months of hype and “is it coming this week?” guesses, OpenAI has dropped GPT-5—and it’s not just another model update. This one’s faster, smarter, and feels a whole lot more human. And OpenAI didn’t stop there. They also surprised everyone with their first open-weight model in over six years.
