OpenAI prepares to launch GPT-5 in August, The Verge reports
The new model, which was expected to launch this summer, will be positioned as an AI system that incorporates distinct models and can perform different functions as opposed to just a single AI model.
OpenAI did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The Microsoft-backed startup's GPT-5 will incorporate its o3 model along with other technologies, CEO Sam Altman had said in February, in a bid to simplify its offerings.
The startup ultimately aims to merge the o-series and GPT-series models as it looks to create AI systems that can utilize all available tools and handle a variety of tasks.

Trump says India may get 20% to 25% tariff but not yet final
[WASHINGTON] US President Donald Trump said that India may be hit with a tariff rate of 20 to 25 per cent, while cautioning that the final levy still had not been finalised as the nations negotiate a trade deal ahead of an Aug 1 deadline. 'I think so,' Trump told reporters on Tuesday (Jul 29) when asked if that was a possible tariff rate for New Delhi. 'India has been a good friend, but India has charged basically more tariffs than almost any other country,' Trump said aboard Air Force One as he returned to Washington from a five-day visit to Scotland. 'You just can't do that.' Trump's comments came before the start of the business day in India, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government has yet to issue a response. Any rate 20 per cent or higher would come as a disappointment for India, which had been seeking a better deal than the 19 per cent that Trump offered Indonesia and the Philippines. Bloomberg reported earlier this month that the US and India were working towards an agreement that would reduce proposed tariffs to below 20 per cent, even as Modi's administration resisted demands to open up the agricultural and dairy sectors. Although Indian officials have expressed optimism on reaching a deal, relations with the US have hit some turbulence in recent months. Trump's insistence that his trade threats prompted India and Pakistan to reach a ceasefire in April incensed officials in New Delhi, and the US president has also threatened 'secondary tariffs' on India, China and other buyers of Russian oil if President Vladimir Putin does not end hostilities with Ukraine.

Sign Up Sign Up US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Monday that the US needed more time for talks with India to gauge the country's willingness to open its market more to American exports. Reuters reported earlier Tuesday that New Delhi is bracing for higher tariffs likely between 20 per cent and 25 per cent. India has conveyed to the Trump administration the red lines it will not breach in finalising an agreement, Bloomberg reported earlier this month, citing officials familiar with the matter. New Delhi will not allow the US to export genetically modified crops to the country, and is unwilling to open widely its dairy and automobile sectors, the sources said, asking not to be identified because the discussions are private. India has expressed willingness to offer zero tariffs on some goods such as auto components and pharmaceuticals. Modi's government has taken a more cautious stance as it faces pressure to protect India's politically sensitive farm sector. Millions depend on agriculture for their livelihoods and farmers form a key voting bloc for Modi's party, which faces a crucial state election in the coming months. India and the US have already signed terms of reference for a bilateral trade deal and have been negotiating an interim agreement that New Delhi hoped would give it a reprieve from higher US import duties. The president was commenting ahead of an Aug 1 deadline when a slew of so-called reciprocal tariffs are set to take effect on dozens of trading partners. Trump announced higher levies in April, before pausing those tariffs at a reduced 10 per cent rate to allow time for negotiations. Despite an extended deadline, Trump has only secured a handful of deals. BLOOMBERG

Trump approval rating sinks to 40%, the lowest of his term, poll finds
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox The poll showed a nation deeply polarised over Mr Donald Trump, with 83 per cent of Republicans and just 3 per cent of Democrats approving of his performance. WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump's approval rating dropped one percentage point to 40 per cent, the lowest level of his second term in office, as Americans remained concerned about his handling of the economy and immigration, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found. The three-day poll, which closed on July 28, surveyed 1,023 US adults nationwide and had a margin of error of 3 percentage points. It showed a nation deeply polarised over Mr Trump, with 83 per cent of Republicans and just 3 per cent of Democrats approving of his performance. About one-third of independents approved. Mr Trump had a 41 per cent approval rating in Reuters/Ipsos' most recent prior poll, conducted on July 15 and 16. The Republican campaigned on promises to supercharge the US economy and crack down on immigration, and the poll found that Americans gave him mixed marks on both those areas, where his administration is using aggressive tactics. Some 38 per cent of respondents approved of Mr Trump's handling of the economy, up from 35 per cent approval in the mid-July poll. His numbers were also up slightly on immigration, with 43 per cent of respondents approving, compared with 41 per cent in the earlier poll. All the shifts were within the poll's margin of error.
