- Sam Altman posts on x about new products over the next few months
- Warnings of “capacity creeps” and that things “may be slightly chopped”
- Chatgpt-5 possibly delayed as it did not launch at the start of the month
Openai CEO Sam Altman has laid out X.com That, “We have lots of things to launch over the next few months-new models, products, features and more”, but so far there is no evidence of the broadly expected chatgpt-5.
Many news sites have predicted that chatgpt-5 should arrive in August, and it was warm tilted to be released at the beginning of the month. However, when the calendar flew over until August, all we got was the tweet from Openai CEO.
The start of the month would have been the ideal time to start chatgpt-5, and the fact that Altman mentions the “next few months” means that we may have to wait a while for the release of Opena’s most impressive model.
We have lots of things to launch over the next few months-new models, products, features and more. Carry us with us through some probable hiccups and capacitycrunches. While it may be a little chopped, we think you will really love what we have created for you!August 2, 2025
At the same time, Altman warned that chatgpt users could be in for some disturbances over the next few months: “Please carry us through some probable hiccups and capacity crushes. While it may be a little chopped, we think you will really love what we have created for you!”, He said.
Capacity shards
As on signal, a chatgpt -user has complained that the service has begun to hood the number of uploads of image that can be done one day to 30, without any notice.
Uses rhizopus_nigrians saying, “This lurks the workflow for serious users. And I’m one. I have paid for plus since the beginning. I love it. I have promoted this tool to friends, friends, even students,” he published.
Most of the other Reddit users on the thread point out that this is probably just a temporary error, rather than an actual policy change from Openai. To test his theory, I uploaded 40 images today and there was no problem, but it does not rule out that it could also be part of the “capacity crisis” or “hiccups” that Altman warned about in his tweet.
When does Chatgpt-5 arrive?
Chatgpt 5 is expected to be the first Openai model to automatically direct your request to its most appropriate model version or research method, instead of having to choose which confusing named Model version you need. It is also reported to have key improvements in accuracy, speed and resource efficiency.
Although it is frustrating that Openai has missed the start of the month for a release of Chatgpt 5, there is still plenty of time left in the month for an August release. What will be interesting to see is whether the release is only for plus users or if free chatgpt users also have access to the new model.
When Chatgpt 5 is released, demand to use it will probably be on one all the time, especially if it contains any improvements to the image generator, which is why I think Altman is eager to warn people that we can be in for some disturbance now.
