GPT-5 may be smarter. But is it safer? We tested the model across 1,000+ adversarial prompts. The results show just how much alignment depends on infrastructure, and not model magic.
Reactions were split. Some hailed GPT‑5 as a milestone on the path to AGI, while others warned that it doesn’t quite live up to the hype. That said, analyst voices were more measured. A Gartner expert noted GPT‑5 “meets expectations in technical performance, exceeds in task reasoning and coding, and underwhelms in [other areas],” stopping short of crowning it an AGI-level breakthrough. Across the board, optimism met restraint.
GPT‑5 is making waves as OpenAI’s most advanced general-purpose model: faster, smarter, and more integrated across modalities.
Its auto-routing architecture seamlessly switches between a quick-response model and a deeper reasoning model without requiring a separate “reasoning model” toggle. GPT‑5 itself decides whether to “think hard.”
