Another week, another OpenAI announcement. Just last week the company announced ChatGPT would get a major memory upgrade, and now CEO, Sam Altman, is hinting at more upgrades coming this week.
On X (formerly Twitter), Altman wrote last night, “We’ve got a lot of good stuff for you this coming week! Kicking it off tomorrow.”
Well, tomorrow has arrived, and we’re very excited to see what the world’s leading AI company has up its sleeve.
We’re not sure when to expect the first announcement, but we’ll be live blogging throughout the next week as OpenAI showcases what it’s been working on. Could we finally see the next major ChatGPT AI model?
Good afternoon everyone, TechRadar’s Senior AI Writer, John-Anthony Disotto, here to take you through the next few hours in the lead up to OpenAI’s first announcement of the week.
Will we see something exciting today? Time will tell.
Let’s get started by looking at what Sam Altman said on X yesterday. The OpenAI CEO hinted at a big week for the company, and it’s all “kicking off” today!

One of the announcements I expect to see this week is ChatGPT 4.1, the successor to 4o. Just last week, a report from The Verge said the new AI model was imminent, and considering Altman’s tweet, it very well could arrive today.
GPT-4.1 will be the successor to 4o, and while we’re not sure what it will be called, it could set a new standard for general use AI models as OpenAI’s competitors like Google Gemini and DeepSeek continue to catch up, and sometimes surpass ChatGPT.
