We’re not just watching AI evolve — we’re inside the curve now. GPT‑5 is expected this summer, and if it delivers even half of what’s anticipated, it could mark a new kind of shift.

I’ve followed the progress from GPT‑3 to 4 and now 4o, using these tools in real workflows. Each step has made things easier, faster, and more fluid. But what’s coming next isn’t just about smoother chats — it’s about agents that think, build, and act alongside us.

The pace is what stands out most. What once felt distant — multimodal understanding, AI coworkers, near-zero hallucinations — is now weeks away. This acceleration changes how I work, what I prioritize, and where I place value.

We’re moving into a phase where collaborating with AI will feel less like using a tool — and more like working with a team.

That changes everything.
