"Excited for the winter constellations to rise soon; they are so great," the post also read.

Many speculated that the post was related to Orion, the organisation's new Artificial Intelligence (AI) model.

On October 25, The Verge confirmed the speculations stating that Orion was expected to be a hundred times more powerful than GPT-4.

Notably, unlike GPT-4o and o1, Orion will not be released widely in the public. Rather, OpenAI will deploy it first to the companies its working closely with, said a source familiar with the plan. Microsoft is speculated to host Orion on Azure as early as November.
