Post says a new model is "imminent"
A post on X on Nov. 14 (5:53:22 p.m. Nov. 14 Japan time) said the release of a new OpenAI model is imminent and that next week looks promising. It came from @notjazii (display name J A Z I I), an account that says in its profile that it covers AI and tech news. The poster wrote that OpenAI might release the model on Tuesday, just before Anthropic's IPO (initial public offering), or on Thursday, right after it. The post did not mention the model's name or performance, and OpenAI has announced nothing.
openai new model is imminent team has started vague posting again and next week is looking promising model has been getting stealth tested for the past week and it's getting better with each checkpoint update i feel like team might drop model just before anthropic ipo (tuesday) or right after ipo (thursday)
Evidence cited: "vague posting" and quiet testing
As evidence, the poster cited OpenAI's team starting to post vaguely suggestive messages again, and the model having been quietly tested over the past week and improving with each update. Both are the poster's claims, and the post did not say where the testing took place or how it was confirmed.
The post included a screenshot of an exchange on X between two people whose profiles say they work on ChatGPT or Codex. On Nov. 13 (the morning of Nov. 14 Japan time), Justin (@JustinBleuel), whose profile reads "product @chatgpt," said their flight was indefinitely grounded and asked for feature requests, easter eggs (hidden features) and creative ideas for ChatGPT. Justin said the ideas would be forwarded to their dot (OpenAI's always-on agent, dots) to prototype, and also asked for April Fools' and other fun ideas. Andrew Ambrosino (@ajambrosino), whose profile reads "Codex & ChatGPT @OpenAI," replied with just "new model."
@JustinBleuel @ChatGPT new model
The reply was a short comment in a thread seeking requests and fun ideas, and it did not explain what it referred to. It is not an official OpenAI announcement.
The days are the poster's guess
On timing, the poster framed the prediction as a guess with "i feel like" and gave only days of the week, not dates. Anthropic has said its shares are expected to begin trading on Nasdaq on Nov. 19 (U.S. time). The poster followed up with a poll asking about the chances of a model coming out next week.
