One detail from the GPT-5 release presentation stuck with me: you can simply write ‘think hard about this’ to the system, and it switches to a deeper thinking mode.

From that point on, financial institutions will be required to adopt ISO 20022 as the sole format for core payment messaging. It’s a critical moment — but not the end of the road.
