GPT‑5: Expert‑Level AI Unleashed in 2025

GPT‑5: Expert-Level Thinking in Your Pocket

Introduction

When OpenAI calls a model “our smartest, fastest, most useful yet,” it sets expectations—and GPT‑5 delivers. Officially released on August 7, 2025, GPT‑5 integrates reasoning, multimodal understanding, and task execution into a seamless AI experience BotpressOpenAI. Users describe it like having “access to a PhD‑level expert in your pocket” ABC News, while still being fast, intuitive, and more reliable than any predecessor Business InsiderOpenAI.

What Makes GPT‑5 Stand Out?

H2: Built-In Thinking with Real-Time Routing

GPT‑5 is a unified system that intelligently chooses between instant responses and deeper thinking based on context and complexity—thanks to a real‑time router trained on user interactions OpenAI+1.

H2: Multimodal Power, Long-Context Support

With support for both text and images and enormous context windows (up to 400,000 tokens), GPT‑5 operates seamlessly across tasks—from analyzing pictures to handling long-form content Simon Willison’s WeblogOpenAI.

H2: Real-World Expertise Across Domains

On coding, math, writing, health benchmarks—GPT‑5 sets new records:

• 94.6% on AIME 2025 (math)

• 74.9% (SWE-bench Verified) & 88% (Aider Polyglot) on coding

• 84.2% on multimodal comprehension (MMMU)

• 46.2% on HealthBench OpenAI+1

H2: Safer, More Trustworthy, Factual

GPT‑5 dramatically reduces hallucinations—by around 80% on benchmarks like LongFact—and improves instruction following, factuality, and safety transparency OpenAI+1.

Key Facts at a Glance
