NEWS UPDATES
OpenAI hints at a GPT-5 reveal “soon”
OpenAI’s lead researchers confirmed the next flagship model has finished pre-training and is now in red-team review. Early benchmarks show sizable gains in code reliability and long-context reasoning. A new pricing tier will target heavy enterprise workloads.
You should care because procurement windows for premium access will close quickly. Line up budget and safety checks now so you’re not stuck on a wait-list when GPT-5 APIs open.
Doge has built an AI tool that trims federal red tape
Startup Doge released a model fine-tuned on U.S. regulations that maps every filing step and auto-drafts compliant forms. In pilot tests with logistics firms, approval cycles fell from weeks to days.
Legal and operations teams can drop PDF SOPs into the tool and generate a checklist plus pre-filled templates—saving billable hours and late fees.
OpenAI chair warns “model costs are destroying capital”
Bret Taylor told investors that training expenses double every ~18 months and called for lighter architectures, dedicated AI chips, and stricter ROI gates before new mega-models start.
Boards should take note: the next budget season will ask whether each model truly moves revenue faster than it burns GPUs. Track cost-per-query as closely as accuracy.
