Chat GPT-4o: OpenAI’s Mira Murati announced the enhancement of ChatGPT, bringing GPT-4 caliber intelligence to all users, including those on the free version. This upgrade coincides with the launch of OpenAI’s latest flagship model, GPT-4o, and significant alterations to the user interface.
The ChatGPT ecosystem now offers two variants: the complimentary ChatGPT 3.5 and the premium ChatGPT 4, priced at $20 monthly. Subscribers gain access to a more robust language model capable of processing larger datasets for generating responses.
GPT-4o aims to bridge the performance gap, enriching conversational experiences with ChatGPT.
Since its introduction news in November 2022, ChatGPT has spurred a surge in consumer-friendly AI products and experimentation. Various entities, including startups like Anthropic and tech giants such as Google and Microsoft, have ventured into generative AI chatbots. Additionally, companies like Rabbit and Humane have developed innovative gadgets leveraging this technology.
OpenAI’s GPT-4o announcement precedes the anticipated focus on AI, particularly its Gemini chatbot and Search Generative Experience, at Google’s annual I/O developer conference. Similarly, Apple’s WWDC event in early June is expected to unveil significant AI-related revelations.
Despite the limitations of ChatGPT 3.5, as noted by CNET reviewer Imad Khan, who highlighted its adequacy for basic and moderately complex queries, the upgraded ChatGPT 4 offers noticeable improvements, particularly for accuracy and computational dexterity.
Key Features of Chat GPT-4o:
– Mira Murati, OpenAI’s Chief Technology Officer, revealed that GPT-4o will gradually roll out over the next few weeks, bringing GPT-4-level intelligence to all users.
– Paid users will enjoy a capacity limit five times greater than that of free users.
– GPT-4o boasts twice the speed and is 50% cheaper than its predecessor, GPT-4 Turbo, released in late 2023. It supports 50 languages and will be integrated into the API for developers.
– Enhanced User Interface: OpenAI introduced a desktop app and refreshed UI to improve accessibility. The new UI facilitates more natural interactions with ChatGPT, including real-time conversational speech recognition, emotion detection, and simplified invocation with the phrase “Hey, ChatGPT.”
Advanced Interaction Capabilities:
– Users can now engage with ChatGPT through video, enabling live demonstrations of problems and seeking assistance.
– Additionally, users can share screenshots, photos, and documents with text and images, search for real-time information within conversations, and conduct advanced data analysis by uploading charts or code.
Previously, GPT-4 was exclusively available through the ChatGPT Plus subscription, featuring 1 trillion parameters. OpenAI remains committed to advancing AI capabilities and hinted at forthcoming updates on their progress.
