Where's ChatGPT-5? Sam Altman hints at delays, crunches, and a bumpy ride ahead
Where's ChatGPT-5? ? The anticipation for ChatGPT-5 is building, but OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has just hinted that it may not arrive as soon as hoped. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has hinted that ChatGPT-5 may not be available immediately, despite previous speculation that it would be released in early August. A recent post on X hinted at product launches "over the next couple of months," but also warned users about "capacity crunches" and a rough ride in the near future. The delay has left users eager, but braced for a potentially choppy experience.

It was widely believed that ChatGPT-5 would be released on August 1st, as many news sources had predicted. But when the calendar turned to August, all we saw was the OpenAI CEO's tweet, as per a report by TechRadar. Live Events we have a ton of stuff to launch over the next couple of months--new models, products, features, and more. please bear with us through some probable hiccups and capacity crunches. although it may be slightly choppy, we think you'll really love what we've created for you! — Sam Altman (@sama) August 2, 2025 Why hasn't ChatGPT-5 launched yet? Launching ChatGPT-5 at the beginning of the month would have been ideal, and Altman's reference to the "next couple of months" suggests that we may still have to wait a little while for the release of OpenAI's most impressive model, as per a report by TechRadar. 'Please bear with us through some probable hiccups and capacity crunches. Although it may be slightly choppy, we think you'll really love what we've created for you," Altman said, warning ChatGPT users that they may experience some disruptions over the coming months. ALSO READ: iPhone 17 launch date leaked and here's when the phone will be available in shelves Are users already feeling the strain? According to a ChatGPT user, the service has begun to randomly cap the daily number of image uploads at 30, which is disrupting serious users' workflow. The majority of Reddit users think this is a short-term glitch rather than an actual OpenAI policy change. Users of ChatGPT may experience some "hiccups" during the upcoming months, Altman cautioned. Instead of requiring users to choose between several confusingly named model versions, ChatGPT 5 is anticipated to be the first OpenAI model to automatically route requests to the most appropriate model version or research method. It is said to have significant gains in speed, accuracy, and resource efficiency. There is still time in the month for an August release, even though it is annoying that OpenAI missed the beginning of the month for the release of ChatGPT 5. It will be interesting to see if the new model will be available to free ChatGPT users as well or if it will only be available to Plus users. Demand for ChatGPT 5 is expected to reach an all-time high upon its release, particularly if the image generator is enhanced. FAQs Is ChatGPT-5 set to launch soon? It is not confirmed. Altman stated that new models will be released in the coming months, but did not specifically mention ChatGPT-5. Why are there so many glitches and limits lately? Altman warned users about potential "hiccups" and system strain as OpenAI prepares for major launches.

These $80 Windows XP Crocs just made me desperate for Android footwear
Techradar TL;DR Microsoft has created Windows XP Crocs as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations. The custom footwear features a sky blue design with grassy green soles that mimic the conic Bliss wallpaper from the XP era. All I want is for Google to make Android Crocs a thing! Microsoft just did the unthinkable and made Windows XP cool again after almost 25 years. The software giant has released a pair of Windows XP-inspired Crocs, and now, all I can think of is how cool it would be if Google made some Android Crocs! You can buy Android Croc charms from the Google Store, but a fully custom-designed pair of Crocs would be so cool, just like these Windows XP ones. In celebration of its 50th anniversary, Microsoft has gone full nostalgia mode with a limited-edition pair of Windows XP-themed Crocs. The shoes feature a sky blue design with grassy green soles that mimic the iconic Bliss wallpaper from the XP era. If that's not enough, each pair of Windows XP Crocs also comes with a six-pack of Microsoft charms, including the MSN logo, Internet Explorer icon, Clippy, and a good old-fashioned mouse pointer. The Verge first reported on the nostalgic footwear, and TechRadar confirmed that the Crocs are very real. Looks like Microsoft employees are getting first dibs via preorder before the rest of the world can clog a pair. The Windows XP Crocs are $80 and even come with a matching Bliss drawstring backpack. I love Microsoft, but I can't help wanting my own Android pair for obvious reasons. I have a whole collection of Android pins collected painstakingly from Mobile World Congress over the years. I even use some of them as earrings once in a while. But now, all I want is Android Crocs. Picture a bright green shoe with little bugdroids across the strap, charms shaped like old Nexus phones, the original Android robot logo, and maybe even a scannable QR code. Make the Android Crocs happen, Google, for the nostalgia, for the pins, and for my feet. Article body continued Follow
