Leaked details about OpenAI’s upcoming GPT-5 model, codenamed Orion, suggest it’s hitting performance roadblocks—particularly with coding problems outside its training scope. This delay isn’t just a hiccup for OpenAI; it’s sparking an industry-wide debate on whether AI innovation is slowing down or if a breakthrough is just around the corner.

Join Robert Loft and Haley Hanson as we unpack:

  • Why GPT-5 is struggling to generalize beyond training data.
  • Industry fears of a deep learning plateau and proposed solutions, including hybrid AI models.
  • OpenAI’s official response to these leaks and their optimistic outlook.

Are we at a tipping point in AI development, or is this just the calm before the next storm of innovation? Find out in this episode of Quantum Drift.
