OpenAI is preparing something big, and the suspense is mounting by the hour. Sam Altman, the boss of the company behind ChatGPT, says he's so excited he hasn't slept a wink all night. The day before the announcement, the mystery remains, but the recent context suggests a big surprise.
OpenAI has been making a string of announcements in recent weeks. After integrating a powerful image generator into ChatGPT 4.0 and the quiet launch of GPT-4.5, the company still seems to have a major card to play. This Wednesday, Sam Altman published a very short but meaningful message: "I am so excited about what we are launching tomorrow. I hope you like it as much as I do." This is clearly enough to ignite speculation.
This isn't the first time OpenAI has teased a new feature, but this type of direct statement from its boss remains rare. Sam Altman is known for his measured approach to communication. Seeing him express such enthusiasm, in such a personal way, suggests that the announcement scheduled for this Thursday will not be a simple technical update. It could well introduce a new way to use ChatGPT.
OpenAI promises a strong announcement, and rumors about ChatGPT are starting up again
Several hypotheses are already circulating: a voice version of ChatGPT allowing natural dialogue, a contextual assistant integrated into the Windows environment, or even the arrival of a GPT-5 model, which is more fluid and more reliable. Others are talking about a major launch on the mobile side, with a new application designed to replace Siri or Google Assistant. OpenAI remains silent, but the timing is strategic: competition is intensifying, particularly with Google's Gemini and Anthropic's Claude, which already offer highly advanced tools.
OpenAI knows it must continue to surprise to stay ahead. AI models have become everyday tools for millions of users. If tomorrow's announcement reflects this rise in power, it could mark a decisive turning point. Between the promise of something new, the strategic stakes, and the mounting pressure on social networks, all eyes are on the company. And judging by Sam Altman's excitement, something big is brewing.
A few times a year I wake up early and can't fall back asleep because we are launching a new feature I've been so excited about for so long.
Today is one of those days!
