OpenAI is determined to completely transform how we use the Internet thanks to artificial intelligence. The startup has announced the launch of GPT-4, the new generation of its language model, which will significantly improve the functionality of tools such as the popular ChatGPT or the intelligent chatbot that Microsoft is incorporating into its search engine, Bing.
“GPT-4 can solve difficult problems with greater precision, thanks to its broader general knowledge and problem-solving skills,” the technology says in a statement.
Unlike GPT-3.5, the system that ChatGPT used initially, the new language model is capable of parsing images and text. However, all responses it can provide to the user are still written.
For example, the Internet user can share an image of food with the AI and ask the machine what it could cook with it. Without a doubt, this is the main novelty that incorporates a tool that, for the rest, will continue to be very continuous.
Despite the technical improvements, the new language model still needs to definitively solve one of the fundamental problems that conversational chatbots have: misinformation, biases, or the generation of content that incites hate.
GPT-4 still has many known limitations we are working to address, such as social biases, hallucinations, and conflicting indications, which they acknowledge from OpenAI. “It still has bugs; it’s still limited.
Indeed, at the moment, GPT-4 is limited to a few users of the OpenAI tools, specifically those who pay for the ChatGPT Plus subscription service, which has a monthly price of $20. Developers can also access the tool through a waiting list.
However, the language model has been available for five weeks in the brand new chatbot of the Bing search engine, which Microsoft hopes will be vital to closing the gap with Google, the undisputed power in this field.
As OpenAI updates GPT-4 and later, Bing benefits from those improvements. With our updates based on community feedback, you have the most comprehensive co-pilot features available.
