GPT-5 could debut as early as August, according to Reuters, and will fuse several distinct systems rather than ship as a single monolith. The Verge reports mini and nano variants will launch alongside the flagship to offer tiered pricing and lower-latency or on-device use. Early testers say GPT-5 will be multimodal and agentic, able to mix text, images, audio and file manipulation inside task-running agents. There are rumors of a million-token context window with persistent memory baked into the core, enabling handling entire projects. Leaks indicate GPT-5 includes a safety and biosecurity focus with internal ‘BioSec Benchmarks’ to harden against
