OpenAI registers the “GPT-5” brand, towards a launch this year?

OpenAI is already starting to think about the sequel to GPT-4. The proof with the filing of an important trademark!

GPT is the most well-known language model among the general public, powering ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence phenomenon of the year 2023. And while its GPT-4 version was only released last March, OpenAI is already looking towards the GPT-5 version.

See in advance?

As we know, things move quickly in tech. And even more in the field of artificial intelligence, which is experiencing such a boom that the giants of the sector are organizing to try to put a little more order and security there.

This is shown by new information from Windows Latest. The American media has indeed spotted the filing of a “GPT-5” trademark by OpenAI with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the office responsible for issuing patents and trademarks on the other side of the Atlantic. An action carried out on July 18th.

The trademark is registered in the category “downloadable software for the use of a language model”, which was already the case for the predecessors GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. The obvious question that immediately comes to mind is: has OpenAI advanced more than we thought?

Because as a reminder, Sam Altman, the boss of Microsoft’s partner company, explained not long ago that it was too early to think about GPT-5. Last June, he declared that he was only at the design stage. ” We have a lot of work to do before launching this model he specified. So, is society working in silence, with a facade of modesty to move forward quietly? Or is the language model that could revive the interest of ChatGPT really not about to see the light of day?
