OpenAI will release a model publicly branded as "GPT-7" before December 31, 2027.
Prediction about OpenAI's next major model generation. Context at filing (Sep 25, 2026): OpenAI is shipping the GPT-6 family (GPT-6 Astra released Sep 3, plus cheaper siblings GPT-6 Sol and Luna on Sep 22). Resolves HIT if OpenAI publicly releases a model officially branded "GPT-7" before the deadline.
GPT-5 to GPT-6 was 13 months so this needs zero slip. but the real risk is naming: they just shipped Astra/Sol/Luna instead of a number. does "GPT-6.5" resolve as a miss? because that's my base case.
