The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron whose cell body resides in the central nervous system. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the forebrain over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The forebrain is the anterior of the three primary divisions of the developing chordate brain or the corresponding part of the adult brain (in vertebrates, includes especially the cerebral hemispheres, the thalamus, and the hypothalamus and especially in higher vertebrates is the main control center for sensory and associative information processing, visceral functions, and voluntary motor functions). The process whereby the developmental fate of a neuroblast becomes restricted such that it will develop into a GABAergic interneuron residing in the cerebral cortex. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a GABAergic interneuron residing in the cerebral cortex. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron residing in the cerebral cortex. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cerebral cortex GABAergic interneuron over time, from initial commitment to its fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell.
