OpenAI on Thursday released a keenly awaited fifth generation of its hallmark ChatGPT, which is touting it as smarter and faster than predecessors.

ChatGPT-5 is rolling out free to all users of the AI tool, which is used by nearly 700 million people weekly. However, a user can only use this verson for free is only not be until allotments are hit.

What GPT-5 Can Do

Voice Mode Is Now Available to All Users

GPT-5’s Voice Mode has been rolled out universally, allowing users to engage in real-time conversations with the AI. In a live demo, it was shown that the AI could tailor its voice responses precisely as requested—for example, summarising Pride and Prejudice in a single word: “relationships.”

Users Can Customise the Style of Answers in Real-Time

GPT-5 lets users control how it thinks and responds. Prompts like “think harder” or “more precisely” can influence the quality and depth of its answers, offering a new level of personalisation and control over AI output.

Smarter and More Natural Creative Writing Output

When tasked with writing a eulogy for earlier GPT models, GPT-5 delivered content with emotional nuance and sensitivity. Compared to GPT-4o, which had a more factual tone, GPT-5’s output felt more human, expressive, and resonant.

Generates Complex Code and Functional Websites Quickly

During a live-stream demo, GPT-5 wrote over 200 lines of code within minutes. It created a fully functional website complete with visual design elements and embedded audio—specifically aimed at helping users learn French interactively with a partner.

Explains Scientific Concepts and Can Generate Visuals

When asked to explain the Bernoulli effect, GPT-5 responded swiftly and clearly. It also demonstrated the ability to generate relevant visuals, although this took slightly longer—highlighting its expanded capability in visual reasoning and conceptual teaching.

Live Display of AI’s Thought Process Enhances Transparency

One standout feature of GPT-5 is its ability to show its internal reasoning while processing a prompt. This “thinking out loud” capability gives users insight into how the model arrives at conclusions, increasing user trust and engagement.

Improvements in Voice and Video Functionality

GPT-5 is part of OpenAI’s broader vision to advance voice and video interactions. The model has been trained to better understand spoken instructions, and future updates are expected to enhance its ability to respond in more conversational, context-aware ways.
