ChatGPT, OpenAI’s viral AI-powered chatbot, just got a major upgrade.
OpenAI today announced that premium ChatGPT users (customers paying for ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise) can now enjoy an updated and improved version of GPT-4 Turbo, one of the models that powers the ChatGPT conversational experience.
This new model (“gpt-4-turbo-2024-04-09”) brings improvements to writing, math, logical reasoning and coding, OpenAI claims, as well as a more up-to-date knowledge base . It was trained on publicly available data through December 2023, unlike the previous edition of GPT-4 Turbo available in ChatGPT, which had a cutoff date of April 2023.
“When writing with ChatGPT (with the new GPT-4 Turbo), responses will be more direct, less verbose, and use more conversational language,” writes OpenAI in an article on X.
The ChatGPT update — which follows Tuesday’s GA launch of new models in the OpenAI API, including GPT-4 Turbo with Vision, which adds image understanding capabilities to the normally text-only GPT-4 Turbo — arrives after an unflattering week for OpenAI. .
A report from The Intercept revealed that Microsoft presented OpenAI’s DALL-E text-to-image model as a battlefield tool for the US military. And, according to a report in The Information, OpenAI recently fired two researchers — including an ally of chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, who was among those who pushed for the ouster of CEO Sam Altman at the end of the year last – for allegedly leaking information.
