ChatGPT 5 is officially here and most users can try out the new version that gets improved features, better safety and faster performance.

5 key aspects of ChatGPT 5 answered, including pricing, features and more
OpenAI has introduced its latest ChatGPT 5 model that is claimed to be more powerful and smarter than the previous GPT versions. The launch comes at a time when OpenAI sees its AI tools used by nearly 700 million people every week, and is facing rising competition and growing concerns around AI’s effect on mental health and employment.
The AI job threat is real but the excitement around new models is hard to dismiss, especially as the tech evolves at a rapid pace. But the best aspect about GPT 5 could be its sensibilities towards false information and being more transparent with the users.
5 Key Things You Need To Know About ChatGPT 5
New Variants
ChatGPT 5 comes in three variants: GPT 5, GPT 5 Mini which is a lighter version and the GPT 5 nano that is claimed to be faster and cheaper to run on devices. ChatGPT 5 comes to free users as well but they can only use the GPT 5 and the Mini versions. If you want to unlock the GPT Pro version you will need to pay for the ChatGPT Pro plan that comes at $200 per month.
More Features
ChatGPT 5 is being integrated across all the OpenAI products. You will see the new model work for reasoning, image generation, web browsing and the voice mode feature as well. OpenAI says you don’t need to switch the AI models anymore and GPT 5 will handle the load of making the right version do the work.
Improved performance
ChatGPT 5 does better with coding than the earlier models. It scored better on the benchmarks for thinking, bug fixing and other complex tasks involved with heavy operations for the developers. Using a demo, OpenAI showed how GPT 5 can create an interactive app with the help of text prompts in a minute.
Smarter And Safer
GPT versions before this have faced hallucination issues which OpenAI claims GPT 5 handles much better. GPT 5 offers error rates 65 percent compared to o3 and 26 percent lower than GPT-4o version. The company has put GPT 5 through over 5,000 hours of external testing to make it more durable and reliable against these issues. GPT-5 will also be transparent about its abilities and not give unreasonable responses when it doesn’t know something.
Working With Others
GPT 5 integration with Microsoft has been confirmed earlier today and Google products will start supporting the new model in the next few days. But GPT 5 Pro will be the only tier that can connect Gmail, Google, Calendar and more to ChatGPT. OpenAI is likely to bring the support to other plans (and possibly the free version) later.
