Comment on OpenAI will not disclose GPT-5’s energy use. It could be higher than past models

I’m thinking otherwise. I think GPT5 is a much smaller model with some fallback to previous models when needed.

Since it’s running on the exact same hardware with a mostly similar algorithm, using less energy would directly mean it’s a “less intense” model, which translates into an inferior quality in Americanish.

They probably wouldn’t really care how efficient it is, but they certainly would care that the costs are low.

It also has a very flexible “thinking” nature, which means far far less tokens spent on most peoples responses.
