OpenAI has surprised the tech world by launching GPT-5.1, a new model known for its enhanced communication abilities. Addressing user feedback about its previous aloofness, the latest AI iteration is not only knowledgeable but also more engaging to interact with. Additionally, OpenAI has introduced different personalities for GPT-5.1, allowing it to be friendly, efficient, professional, or quirky based on user preferences.

The rollout of GPT-5.1 is set to reach all users, albeit initially through a paid subscription model. However, a free trial period is expected to commence within the next few days, offering users a chance to experience the improved AI model without any financial commitment.
