I have also heard some of this independently, and believe the following to be true. GPT-6 is the next release from OpenAI. It's their true answer to Mythos, and it will arrive much sooner than people expect. Model release cadence has been speeding up for a while now. It's possible that GPT-6 even arrives within the next four weeks. When I say 'arrive', however, it may not mean a general release, because if the last couple of months are any indication, GPT-6 will almost certainly be held back by the government, at least initially. It's a new, much larger pretrain as leo says. Mythos changed everything. Everyone is going big. Including Elon who has a 10T Grok in training. Both OpenAI and Anthropic see capabilities increasing rapidly, with advancement continuing on a new trajectory over the rest of this year and beyond. Both labs are very confident in what they have internally and see nothing above us but air. No ceiling.
