OpenAI has introduced a series of new features and improvements, addressing the demands that have been echoing in the developer community.
These advancements promise to elevate AI capabilities to new heights and provide more versatility for a wide range of applications.
OpenAI is releasing these new features in a close range with the launch of Grok, AI infrastructure owned by X, formerly Twitter.
Grok by XAI is a conversational AI system that is designed to answer questions with wit, suggest questions, and handle real-time knowledge and spicy questions.
According to OpenAI, developers now have access to GPT-4 Turbo. This cutting-edge model supports an impressive 128K context, ensuring more comprehensive and context-aware responses.
GPT-4 Turbo has a fresher knowledge base than its predecessor, GPT-4 and also offers an economic advantage by reducing the cost of input and output tokens.
Additionally, OpenAI has introduced the Assistants API along with new tools, including Retrieval and Code Interpreter.
These tools provide developers with the means to craft world-class AI assistants within their own applications. This makes it easier to create more intelligent and helpful virtual companions.
Also, developers can take advantage of the multimodal system of OpenAI with a combined power of GPT-4 Turbo with Vision, DALL·E 3, and text-to-speech capabilities.
This integration allows for more diverse and creative AI-driven experiences, from understanding and generating text to interpreting visual content.
As a testament to OpenAI’s commitment to providing developers with even more flexibility, GPT-4 rate limits are being doubled.
This enhancement ensures that developers can scale their applications with ease and accommodate a broader user base.
The AI market rush
OpenAI is an artificial intelligence research laboratory consisting of the for-profit corporation OpenAI LP and its parent company, the non-profit OpenAI Inc.
It’s the creator of ChatGPT, a large language model-based chatbot developed by OpenAI and launched on November 30, 2022.
OpenAI has partnerships with several companies, including Microsoft, which has invested $1 billion in the company.
In March 2023, it added support for plugins for ChatGPT, including web browsing and code interpretation, and external plugins from developers such as Expedia, OpenTable, Zapier, Shopify, Slack, and Wolfram.
Two months later, OpenAI launched an iOS app for ChatGPT, and in July 2023, it unveiled an Android app. The apps support chat history syncing and voice input using Whisper, OpenAI’s speech recognition model.
The race for a better AI tool for everyday activity is on and this goes beyond OpenAI and X. Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are part of the big players venturing into the field of AI with massive investments.
