GPT-5 is Here, and Your Business Just Got a New Team Member
By Wordran Naa Wilson
On Thursday 7th August 2025, OpenAI rolled out GPT-5. Yes, the next generation of ChatGPT. And while AI upgrades happen often, this one comes with something different; personality. GPT-5 is not just sharper, faster, and better at understanding complex requests. It now lets you choose how it speaks to you, thanks to four personality modes. Think of it as hiring the same person, but deciding whether they’re blunt, empathetic, precise, or deeply curious.
Personality Modes on the Menu
- Cynic – Gives it to you straight, no sugar-coating. Great for stress-testing your ideas or spotting weak points in your plans.
- Robot – Short, clear, and to the point. Perfect for policies, instructions, and anything where fluff is a distraction.
- Listener – Calm and understanding. Ideal for customer service scripts, sensitive client emails, or warm audience engagement.
- Nerd – The research wizard. For deep dives, fact-checking, and explaining complicated topics in detail.
How to Try GPT-5 Today
Even if you’re on the free version of ChatGPT, you can try GPT-5. You get up to 10 GPT-5 messages every five hours, plus one daily “Thinking” mode for those more complex challenges.
