Altman described the new model as a “significant” step forward for the company and the technology in general, comparing its intelligence to having PhD-level experts at your fingertips.
He also teased OpenAI’s ambitions to turn GPT-5 into a powerful revenue driver, describing plans to sell tools to companies to boost their productivity and efficiency,
“I think a company like OpenAI will be able to build a $100 billion business line, just selling products to other businesses,” said Altman.
“The efficiency gains, the value delivered is so worth it that, I think, I think, we can now build a huge business here, and we’re excited to get going on that.”
