Barring any glitches, the GM is the public release. It has no "mode" attached to it. You were able to get it today because of the beta profile on your phone. Remove that and you will glide through public release day on likely the very same software as comes out that day. If its not the same, you will be prompted to update to the publicly released version.
If you leave the download running it will speed up, just like a torrent. Look at my MacRumors join date - been doing this kind of thing for a while now with OSX,
i keep getting a download error while downloading the update OTA, and forced to start over...
I think you’re confused. The way torrents and Apple software updates work are very different.
Went from 2 hours to 4 minutes while browsing MR. The key is to look away...
GM downloaded and installed pretty quickly here.
Sinking realisation I’ve been excited about today’s GM for no reason :’(

Well if it were a different build with the shortcuts app, it would’ve been worth it. Last year’s GM was a different build with new wallpapers. Not the case this year.
dang... no shortcuts app.. ugh lol.. That means. That theirs going to be another release soon.. or apple accidentally released the wrong iOS 12
Why do you think that? Many of us didn’t expect the shortcuts app before the public release of iOS 12. Is there news that Shortcuts won’t be released then either?
Lol I think it’s going to be released as a “3rd party app” on the Store. I wanted it to be natively included too but I guess just updating the actual Workflow app is what will happen? *shrugs*
Pretty much confirmed that workflow will become shortcuts app on release day. Siri now has a page: https://www.apple.com/siri and if you click on the shortcuts app link, it opens workflow: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id915249334?mt=8
Given that Apple never released Shortcuts as part of a beta build and only made it available as a separately downloadable app from TestFlight (with an invite), I don't think it was reasonable to expect it to be part of the iOS 12 GM build. At the same time, I see no reason why it will not release either on the 17th, either. I've seen no negative statements about how its working (nor experienced anything negative while using it, aside from a few times a widget Shortcut won't fire).
Patience!!!
(and for those who say "its easy for you to say, you've had access to it" I respond: It's so similar to Workflow that having access to it has not been remarkably dissimilar to having Workflow)
