OpenAI’s 2025 Dev Day with Altman livestream incoming

Speculation is rife as to what Altman might announce at the livestream.
Will it be a browser, a new image model, or the highly anticipated AI device? It’s too soon to tell. (Picture: generated)
The October 6. stream will be an excellent moment to announce product news for the OpenAI CEO, but only a few items remain on their to-do-list.

Nothing has been announced but a cryptic tweet promising «new ships,» which could mean anything from new models to new modalities:

Playing it safe
Speculation is rife on what will be announced, but more traditional tech news outlets like TechCrunch and VentureBeat seem to be playing it safe.

OpenAI finds itself in a whole new era of competition from Google and Anthropic heading into the event, they say — and enterprise coding tools will likely take the main stage.

Early leak
That’s where Testingcatalog comes in, with an early leak showing off a whole new agent builder interface.

The new interface is supposed to let users build their own agentic workflows in a point-and-click manner, making it easier for developers stuck in writing manual code to move on to something more intuitive.

Something from Ive and Altman?
That’s not all, though, as there is also a scheduled chat session between Sam Altman and Jony Ive to close out the day.

This will not be live streamed, however, which might point to there being no news about the breakthrough OpenAI device that was announced in May and now seems to be struggling.

Apart from the Ive device, the only thing remaining on the list for OpenAI is releasing an AI browser, and some speculate, a new image generation tool to take on Google’s Nano Banana.

The livestream starts on October 6 at 10:00 Pacific time, or 19:00 in Central Europe, and will «air» on OpenAI’s Youtube channel. It should run for about an hour.

UPDATE: It was apps in ChatGPT and lots of developer tools. The news is here.
