↗What Happened
A timeline of ChatGPT product updates and releases, starting with the latest, which we’ve been updating throughout the year.
Our Take
Timelines are boring, but the pattern's interesting: OpenAI ships small tweaks constantly instead of big releases. That's *good* product management—keeps the press alive, locks users in. But here's what it actually means: LLMs are mature. Nothing revolutionary dropped this year. Just UX polish.
The real story nobody's discussing is that capability growth has flatlined. We're optimizing tone controls now, not solving hard problems.
What To Do
Stop waiting for GPT-5. Figure out what you're building *with* what exists right now.
