Each had its own strengths, and experienced users learned which to reach for and when. In GPT-5, those choices are gone.

On one hand, the routing could save time. On the other, it introduces unpredictability: you can no longer reliably choose the optimal model for your purpose.

While benchmarks show incremental gains, the real win is accessibility. Cheaper models (from $0.05 per million tokens) make AI more available to developers and casual users. This aligns with the Jevons Paradox, where lower costs could drive explosive adoption. However,\u00a0the AGI hype faces reality checks. Fundraising may slow as investors focus on real-world utility over moonshots. For now, GPT-5 strengthens OpenAI\u2019s market lead, proving AI\u2019s future lies in practical applications, not just raw power.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oneusefulthing.org\/p\/gpt-5-it-just-does-stuff\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GPT-5: It Just Does Stuff<\/strong> <\/a>&#8212; from oneusefulthing.org by Ethan Mollick<br \/>\n<em>Putting the AI in Charge<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">I have had early access to GPT-51, and I wanted to give you some impressions of what it is and what it means.
