Earlier reports from foreign media indicated that GPT-5 is expected to be released this month and will continue the product strategy of the GPT series, launching two versions: mini and nano, which will be available to developers and users through API interfaces.

The CEO of OpenAI, **Sam Altman**, has also frequently promoted the new model. He previously shared his experience with GPT-5, saying he felt an unprecedented sense of "helplessness," hinting at the powerful capabilities of the new model far exceeding expectations. Altman also revealed that the conversation interface of GPT-5 will lead "software as a service (SaaS) into the fast fashion era." He stated that in the coming months, OpenAI will launch a large amount of new content, including new models, new products, and new features.

In addition, the update has enhanced functions for alleviating users' emotional and mental distress, providing more accurate personal decision-making guidance, and introducing expert opinions from doctors, researchers, and mental health advisors.
