A New Era of Artificial Intelligence Is Here
“What’s Coming in ChatGPT-5?” is the question on many people’s lips as OpenAI prepares for its latest product showcase of ChatGPT. Scheduled for 6.00 pm BST tonight (7th August 2025), the event will be streamed live on OpenAI’s YouTube channel and promises some of the most significant updates in the world of AI.
If you’re a business owner, marketer or creative professional, now is the time to pay attention.
What’s Coming In GPT-5?
OpenAI has been teasing GPT-5 for a while and it looks like it is finally ready to be revealed. Early leaks and insider hints suggest that this update will go far beyond just better text prediction.
Here are the key features expected in GPT-5:
- Advanced memory that recalls past interactions and understands user context
- More natural conversation that feels intuitive and human
- Improved coding skills for developers and digital professionals
- Agent-style tools that can complete actions like booking appointments or making purchases
- Greater customisation, allowing users to train the model around specific needs
If these features are confirmed, GPT-5 will be a major upgrade, making it more than just a chatbot. It becomes a genuine digital assistant.
At Sokada, we are always looking for tools that can improve how we work with our clients. Whether that’s smarter content generation or new ways to interact with users on your website, updates like this can make a real difference for us and you.
Sora 2 – Smarter AI Video Tools
Launched in the US in December 2024 and the UK in February 2025, Sora was OpenAI’s text-to-video tool that allowed users to generate high-quality photo and video content simply by typing a prompt. While impressive, the first version had some limitations and was not widely available globally.
That could all change with Sora 2.
Here is what we expect from the update:
- Higher resolution and smoother video output
- Better object tracking and scene transitions
- More control over video style and tone
- Wider international access
This could be transformative for businesses looking to create product videos, social content or even training materials. If Sora 2 lives up to expectations, it will bring professional-grade video creation at the touch of a button and a well-written prompt.
If your brand relies on visual content, tools like Sora 2 could save time, reduce costs and help you stand out online, especially when you work with a business like Sokada.
