OpenAI has recently begun training its next frontier model and we anticipate the resulting systems to bring us to the next level of capabilities on our path to AGI. While we are proud to build and release models that are industry-leading in both capabilities and safety, we welcome a robust debate at this important moment.

Sam Altman, the chief executive officer of OpenAI, spoke about the company's progress when NBC's Lester Holt asked him about ChatGPT-5 at the Aspen Ideas Festival in June 2024. He said:

We're optimistic, but we still have a lot of work to do on it. But I expect it to be a significant leap forward... We're still so early in developing such a complex system.

GPT-4 was released on 14 March 2023, and GPT-4 came out on 13 May 2024. Based on this pattern, OpenAI might aim to release the next version in the spring or summer of 2025, keeping about a year between each release. As per Laptop Mag, this timeline could also work because of recent concerns about safety at OpenAI.
