Artificial Intelligence is in fashion. In a very short time, all kinds of AIs have gained incredible popularity, starting with Dall-E, to procedurally create images, and continuing with the popular ChatGPT, a platform, with less than 100 days of life, that has revolutionized the computing as, until recently, we would not have imagined. But Artificial Intelligence has not yet taught us everything it has to teach us, and, just yesterday, the new revolution has arrived: GPT-4.
GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is, roughly speaking, the algorithm (or, technically, the language model) that the AI uses when processing requests and showing us the responses. IF you have recently used ChatGPT, the platform was using an improved version of GPT-3 as of yesterday, which is known internally as GPT 3.5. However, we have been hearing about the new version of this AI for some time, although without too many clues about its launch and about the improvements that will come.
And suddenly, GPT-4 has arrived.
GPT-4: characteristics
This new version of the algorithm focuses on improving three fundamental aspects: the creativity, the visual input and the context. In this way, this algorithm greatly improves all creative work, both when processing requests and when generating, for example, source code.
Some programmers who have already tried this AI assure that generates much finer code and with fewer bugs, it offers much more complete solutions and is able to build requests better. Of course, it continues to make mistakes when generating somewhat complex code and, in addition, it is quite slower than GPT-3.5 when returning the text.
Another interesting novelty is that it is now able to interact with text inputs of up to 25,000 charactersinteract with the text of a website, and even receive imagesidentify them and process requests around them.
Finally, it is also a much more procedural model. sure, generating more accurate responses and 82% fewer responses with disallowed content.
How to start using GPT-4
Since yesterday, the GPT-4 algorithms are available to users who pay the $20 per month for ChatGPT Plusthe “Premium” version of this AI that allows us to obtain faster responses and, most importantly, access the functions that arrive on the platform before others.
This new AI is still in the testing phase, and is being trained by more than 50 humans to get the new algorithm ready. That is why only users who pay for the Plus will be able to access this new AI, for now. When the algorithm is ready, it will be replaced by the current GPT-3.5 and will become available to everyone with the same conditions as now.
Another way to use GPT-4 right now is to use Bing Chat, as Microsoft has confirmed that their smart chat is built on top of this new version, and it’s one of the reasons why their responses sometimes exceed those of the model. OpenAI original.
