In this episode of Future of UX, I share my honest review of the new GPT 5 after testing it intensively for a week.

If you have been on LinkedIn, X, or Instagram lately, you have seen mixed reactions. Some people are excited. Others say it is not a big deal or even that they are disappointed. I have a different view and explain why GPT 5 is an important upgrade for designers.

In this episode you will learn:

What is actually new in GPT 5 beyond the marketing claims
How GPT 5 compares to GPT 4
How GPT 5 can improve workflows for UX and product designers, including prototyping, research, content creation, and conversational interface design

Key highlights include:

Dual mode thinking that is fast when needed and deep when the task requires reasoning
A massive 400k token context window that can process full research projects or product specs in one go
Significantly fewer hallucinations which makes the model more reliable for UX copy, research synthesis, and technical details
Better coding and prototyping capabilities, improved tone and personality control, and stronger multimodal features

By the end of this episode, you will understand why GPT 5 is more than a small upgrade and why you should test it in your own design process before making a final judgment.
