This week, Robert and Haley break down OpenAI’s unexpected shift: no GPT-5 release for 2024. Instead, OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman announced the company’s focus on a refined new model, GPT-o1, formerly known as Project Strawberry. We’ll dig into why OpenAI is prioritizing this model, how GPT-o1 is set to handle high-accuracy tasks in math, science, and logic, and what it might mean for users who rely on AI for intensive problem-solving.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • Why no GPT-5? OpenAI’s strategic pivot to focus on complex, logical, and accurate AI reasoning with GPT-o1.
  • The vision for autonomous AI agents: Altman’s plans for AI to act as agents, performing tasks independently.
  • NSFW AI content: OpenAI’s potential move to allow more open interactions in the future.

Join us as we explore how this shift in focus might redefine user experiences and OpenAI’s place in the AI landscape.
