OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, overpromised on GPT-5, and real-life results are underwhelming, but it looks like a new update is rolling out that might address some of the concerns.

GPT-5 is a state-of-the-art model. In our tests, BleepingComputer found that GPT-5 does really well in coding. It was significantly faster than the other OpenAI models, including o3.

However, GPT-5 struggles to be 'creative' in writing, and it also often fails to switch to its new reasoning capabilities when users expect.

On top of it, we've observed that GPT-5 often produces short content when it's explicitly asked to give more details.

Some believe that GPT-5 is throttling token output to minimize the cost, but OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, argues that a bug caused unexpected problems with GPT-5.
