Honestly, if I were OpenAI, I'd just go different directions at once, and it looks like exactly what they're doing. Dall-E was a standalone experiment before, and now it's reintegrated into the core product.
It's completely plausible they have two different teams working on Omni and GPT-5, as both are completely different research directions from each other, and with the Q*-gate, it's pretty clear, the other effort is still going strong.
OP's take seems to be overly doomerist and I don't really get why.
