In this episode, we analyze OpenAI's GPT 5 rollout, examining the controversial automatic router system and mixed user reception in its first days of release. We explore the technical improvements earning praise from developers, with GPT 5 achieving 74.9% on SWE-bench Verified tests and showing exceptional coding capabilities. The discussion covers OpenAI's competitive API pricing strategy at $1.25 per million input tokens, the company's response to early criticism, and why many writers feel the new model lacks the personality of GPT 4o. We also examine Microsoft's integration plans and how OpenAI is adjusting based on user feedback, particularly regarding the potential return of model selection flexibility.
