What is GPT-5 – The new foundation

GPT-5 is not just a single model, but a unified AI system that automatically finds the optimal balance between speed and depth. The latest AI models have been further developed and integrated into GPT-5 to increase technical performance and versatility. A built-in “AI router” decides whether a task is processed with the fast standard model or the thorough GPT-5 Thinking mode.

The result: everyday questions are answered at lightning speed, while complex projects with multi-step reasoning are thought through precisely without the user having to switch between the different models and their interaction in the system(openai.com). GPT-5 acts as a central program that integrates different model types and functions to ensure an optimal user experience.

256k context window – knowledge in XXL format

With up to 256,000 tokens, GPT-5 can process hundreds of pages of text at once, from complete books to large marketing datasets.

In internal benchmarks, the model analyzed relevant content reliably even at this length and answered questions about it significantly better than GPT-4(singular.net). In practice, this means that a complete quarterly KPI collection or a product database can be analyzed in a single pass – without fragmentation and without loss of information. Companies use this function specifically to evaluate large volumes of data efficiently.

Multimodality & all-in-one working method

GPT-5 combines text, image, audio, video and web search in one platform.

• Interpreting images & diagrams
• Generate graphics and illustrations
• Analyze videos
• Process and speak audio input
• Control tools directly (e.g. browse, code execution)

This enables smooth workflows: Questions can be answered, visual assets created and data researched in a chat without having to switch modes.

Security & “Safe Completions”

Instead of simply rejecting problematic requests, GPT-5 provides filtered but helpful answers, for example with warnings, alternative suggestions or neutral recommendations.

The model recognizes better when information is missing and communicates uncertainties openly. In internal tests, the hallucination rate in thinking mode fell by up to 80% compared to its predecessor(openai.com).

This increases confidence in using GPT-5 in sensitive areas – from healthcare content to compliance-critical marketing materials. Data protection plays a central role in the introduction of GPT-5, as regulatory requirements and data protection guidelines influence the availability and use of the model in different countries. In addition, external service providers are involved in the security review and implementation to ensure the highest security standards.

Conclusion: With this foundation, GPT-5 is less of a “chatbot” and more of a universal work assistant that seamlessly switches between creativity, analysis, technical implementation and strategic thinking, thus laying the foundation for the next chapters of our article.

GPT-5 compared to the competition

In the current AI race 2025, GPT-5 is up against two strong competitors: Claude Opus 4.1 and Gemini Pro 2.5, with Microsoft playing a central role as a partner and investor in the development and distribution of GPT-5 by providing its resources and infrastructure and driving the integration of AI technologies into its own products such as Outlook. All three models are powerful, but differ significantly in their focus, pricing structure and range of functions – with clear implications for content marketing teams.

Strengths of GPT-5 for marketers:

GPT-5 combined the lowest API costs in the field with high multimodality: text, audio, image and even video can be used seamlessly in a workflow. Automatic model selection ensures that simple tasks are completed quickly, while complex projects benefit from “thinking” mode. Particularly valuable for brand work: persistent brand voice across sessions and strong contextual fidelity ideal for long-term campaigns or recurring formats. However, the limitation is that there are currently only 32k tokens of context available in the ChatGPT interface, well below the API capacity.

Comparison with Claude Opus 4.1:

Claude is perceived by many creatives as the writer with the highest style quality, with deeper character development, more nuanced tone, less “AI standard formulas”. For data- and code-intensive marketing automation, it also scores well, but is at the higher end in terms of price and offers the smallest context span in comparison at 200k tokens.

Comparison with Gemini Pro 2.5:

Gemini relies on integrated marketing features: built-in SEO tooling, keyword analyses and the canvas function for visual prototypes. With 1 million tokens of context and maximum processing speed, it is predestined for extremely large volumes of data or content. It lags behind Claude in terms of creative text, but can be a plus for content productions with a strong visual component.

Conclusion for content marketers:

If you are looking for scalable, cost-efficient and multimodal content production, GPT-5 currently offers the most balanced overall package. Claude is suitable for particularly style-critical projects and complex tonalities, Gemini for data and design-heavy marketing projects on a very large scale. In practice, a hybrid deployment (GPT-5 as a central all-rounder, supplemented by special models) could be the most effective solution.

Initial reactions to GPT-5 – between enthusiasm and disillusionment

Initial impressions from media reports and tests paint a mixed picture: the focus is on the development of generative AIs and the role of GPT-5 in this, with impressive progress in certain areas, but less of a “quantum leap” as with the switch from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4.

Strengths in coding and problem solving

Early testers praise the software development and complex reasoning capabilities in particular. GPT-5 can be used to create software from simple prompts formulated in natural language. prompts from simple natural language prompts, including complex structures and design decisions. The Wall Street Journal reports that these demonstrations were particularly impressive, as the AI completed even sophisticated apps within a few seconds(Wall Street Journal). Reuters and TZG – Technologie Zeitgeist also see the improved coding and tool creation capabilities as a clear step forward, even if the leap to GPT-4 is less dramatic(Reuters, TZG).

Moderate leap in innovation

Several voices emphasize that GPT-5 is a solid advancement, but does not trigger the same “wow” feeling as previous generation changes (Reuters, TZG). The model is more stable, more precise and more versatile, but in some everyday applications the difference to GPT-4 is less than expected.

Weaknesses observed early on

Despite technical improvements, errors continue to occur, sometimes in surprisingly simple tasks. The Guardian documents cases in which GPT-5 made spelling mistakes (“Northern Territory”) or provided bizarre answers to trivial questions (The Guardian). Such hallucinations show that even the latest model does not guarantee absolute reliability.

Conclusion of the opinions

The initial feedback can be summarized as follows: GPT-5 is a clear step forward, especially in coding, app creation and complex reasoning, while the improvement in standard tasks is more moderate. The model cannot yet meet expectations of perfection in all areas, which should be taken into account for realistic application scenarios.
