OpenAI plans to introduce GPT-5 in mid-2024, according to a report from Business Insider . The next-level upgrade of the AI language model that drives ChatGPT has reportedly been demonstrated to select enterprise clients, according to two anonymous sources close to OpenAI.
One of the CEOs who received this demonstration described the new GPT model as “really good” and “materially better” as it uses company-level cases and data to generate outputs. The CEO also hinted that the model has more hidden features, like launching AI agents made by OpenAI that can do tasks independently.
The following snippet of a transcript from Altman’s March 18 appearance on the Lex Fridman podcast also hints at this big release.
When Fridman asked when GPT-5 is coming out, Altman initially responded that he honestly didn’t know. After further questioning, Altman revealed that OpenAI plans to release many different things in the coming year.
“I think before we talk about a GPT-5-like model called that, or not called that, or a little bit worse or a little bit better than what you’d expect from a GPT-5, I think we have a lot of other important things to release first,” Altman said.
In this discussion with Lex Fridman, Altman does suggest that the company plans to release a big AI model this year, but that’s about it. It could be GPT-5, but it could also just be a big upgrade to the GPT models that are already in use. The upcoming model is expected to remain a Large Language Model (LLM) that can accept text or encoded visual input (aka prompts).
As per the Business Insider report, OpenAI is currently training GPT-5. Once training is complete, the model will undergo further safety checks for potential problems prior to its public launch. The timing of the release may be pushed back based on how long the evaluation takes.
Ars Technica reports that the sources cited might not have accurate information, and the release of GPT-5 might be postponed for reasons other than testing. If GPT-5 is ready for testing, that could mean its main training is likely done, with additional tweaks and improvements expected to come.
TikTok’s New Creator Program to Focus on Search-Friendly Content

TikTok officially launched its new monetization program, Creator Rewards , last week. The program is based on four evaluation metrics, including “search value”, which rewards creators who produce over 60 seconds long, high-quality, search-optimized videos.
By “search value,” the social media platform means publishing content that aligns with popular search terms. To help with this, TikTok launched the Creator Search Insights tool , which helps influencers research high-trending topics.
“With these insights, creators can source inspiration for their content, tailor their creative strategies to meet audience interests, and create content that people want to see more of,” the company’s blog post states.
It will also reward creators for their accounts’ ad value, i.e., ad revenue based on their community’s ad watchtime for the first time.
However, to qualify for the Creator Rewards program, a creator must be 18 years or above, have a minimum of 10K followers, and have generated at least 100K views in the past 30 days. The user account must be in good standing and located in a region where TikTok is available.
Along with these announcements, TikTok also upgraded the earlier Creator Portal to the new Creator Academy, currently available in seven different languages.
The comprehensive education portal offers courses, articles, and other resources for monetizing TikTok videos, and publishers on TikTok can use the Creator Rewards Program dashboard to directly access the Academy and various resources available therein.
With this revamped program, the platform intends to leverage its untapped potential as a search engine tool and further drive user engagement.
