Artificial intelligence leader Sam Altman of OpenAI predicts GPT-5 could save numerous lives and contribute to an $100 billion explosion in the enterprise AI sector.

OpenAI, the leading AI research organisation, has announced the release of its latest AI model, GPT-5. The new technology, developed under the leadership of OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, is set to be a significant step forward in AI capabilities, according to Altman himself.

In a recent discussion, Altman highlighted several industries that could benefit most from GPT-5. These include software engineering, finance, healthcare, and data entry. The new AI model is expected to bring about a transformation in these sectors, with its capabilities potentially saving lives in the healthcare industry by functioning as a physician assistant.

OpenAI's GPT-5 is not just limited to the realm of OpenAI. Microsoft has integrated GPT-5 into its platforms, leveraging OpenAI's latest models trained on Azure.

Altman compared the intelligence of GPT-5 to having PhD-level experts at your fingertips. Feedback from software developers using GPT-5 indicates increased productivity, with some claiming to be twice as productive or even five times as productive.

To make this cutting-edge technology accessible, OpenAI ensures that every version of GPT-5, including premium tiers, remains low-cost relative to its performance capabilities. The new AI model is being slowly rolled out to users on ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team plans worldwide on web, mobile, and desktop. ChatGPT-5 will soon be available to ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu plans as well.

Sam Altman also discussed plans to sell tools to companies to boost their productivity and efficiency with GPT-5. He believes OpenAI can build a $100 billion business line by selling products to other businesses with GPT-5. Altman suggests that these new roles will be in categories that didn't exist before AI.

While the short-term disruptions in the market due to AI are predictable, Altman believes new roles will emerge as a result. This potential partnership between OpenAI and the Trump administration could be a step towards shaping the future of AI and its impact on industries and jobs.
