The Death Star has arrived... or has it? This week, we're diving headfirst into the most anticipated AI launch of the year: OpenAI's GPT-5. After weeks of incredible hype, including some wild pre-launch marketing from Sam Altman himself, we finally got our hands on the new flagship model. We're here to give you our unfiltered, boots-on-the-ground review. Was it the mind-blowing leap in intelligence we were all expecting, or did the reality fall short of the promises? We unpack the bumpy rollout, the confusing new "thinking" modes that took away our control, and the one change that has us scratching our heads and asking, "who asked for this?"

But the conversation doesn't stop at GPT-5. We put the new model to the test in our own workflows, revealing its surprising strengths and one "painfully slow" weakness that might be a dealbreaker for daily use. We also stack it up against the competition, debating whether Claude Code still holds the crown for developers and if Google's Veo was secretly the most impressive release. Plus, Bradley reveals a game-changing productivity hack involving a speech-to-text tool that has him shipping features faster than ever. Tune in for a jam-packed discussion on the current state of the AI race, the drama shaking up the industry, and our verdict on whether GPT-5 is truly worth the hype.
