 OpenAI just released GPT-5, its most powerful model yet. | We've had our hands on it for weeks—testing its limits, discovering its quirks, and figuring out what it means for how we work. The Vibe Check was written by Dan Shipper and the rest of the Every team, and it's the one piece you need to read to understand what's genuinely new, what's hype, and what you can do with it starting right now. Here's what's included: —The reach test: Our habit-formation yardstick. Does GPT-5 become something you instinctively turn to? We tested it for coding, writing, editing, and day-to-day tasks. —Benchmarks that matter: Beyond OpenAI's official measurements, we ran our own stress tests—good writing, the "cozy ecosystem," AI Diplomacy, impossible puzzle, the "thup" test, and more. —The team roundtable: Hear from Kieran Klaassen, Danny Aziz, Alex Duffy, Naveen Naidu, Yash Poojary, and Katie Parrott on how they use GPT-5 day-to-day for coding, writing, and more. —How to try it yourself: Step-by-step guide to getting started with GPT-5 today.
