OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warns developers to put safety limits on ChatGPT-like apps

The AI race is now in full swing. Many if not all tech players around the world have now stepped into the arena to battle out the AI wars and emerge as number one. Currently, OpenAI is leading the charts with its monumental ChatGPT which made waves across the world after launching in November 2022. However, while humanity is amazed at the capabilities of what conversational general AI is capable of doing, the flip side includes major concerns. Is it safe? Will it replace my job? Will AI become sentient? What is the future? are some of the questions running around on the internet surrounding ChatGPT and similar services which have either been released or are waiting to be released in the near future. Recently, OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman sat down for an interview with ABC News where he shared his concerns about the AI race –

Sam Altman’s views on the AI race

During the interview, one major concern Sam Altman warned about was that there will be other developers who make a service similar to ChatGPT but do not put any safety limits on it. As of now, if ChatGPT is asked to write essays on controversial topics, it refuses to do so. Altman shared that not having safety protocols in place for a ChatGPT clone would be dire as the society as a whole does not have enough time to figure out how to react to it. Sam added furthermore that he is particularly worried about these large-scale language models being used to spread misinformation.

The OpenAI CEO was transparent about the issues concerning AI and also shared that AI will eventually cut a lot of current jobs. Altman was quoted saying “We’ve got to be careful here. I think people should be happy that we are a little bit scared of this” When confronted as to why he feels scared about AI, he said if he doesn’t express his fright then people should either not trust him or be very unhappy that he is in this position. We’re only at the beginning of the AI revolution thus painting a pessimistic picture of the same is not fair. However, it will be interesting to see if this new technology is a boon or a curse to humanity!

Everything You Need To Know About GPT-4

It has not even been six months since the launch of ChatGPT which proved to be the stepping stone of the AI race. If you thought ChatGPT with its capabilities of writing codes, essays, and much more along with having conversations with the users was stuff from the future, just wait till we tell you about GPT-4!

Microsoft-backed OpenAI has started rolling out GPT-4 which is a powerful AI model and the successor to the juggernaut which was ChatGPT. However, GPT-4 is widely different from ChatGPT as it is a ‘multimodal’ capable of generating content from both image and text prompts. However, if you’re someone with no clue about the latest language model by OpenAI then we have you covered. Read on –

What is GPT-4?

In simple terms, GPT-4 is OpenAI’s next generation of larger language model systems (LLM). A large language model as the name suggests is a system that tries to predict the next word in a sentence and adds its inputs to it by studying large datasets. Thus, ChatGPT is able to write down essays or have conversations with users in a manner that makes sense and is not disjointed. Studying large datasets allows the AI to identify conversational or written patterns and act on them. GPT-4 is the latest model in the series and is expected to bring massive improvements over the previous GPT 3 and 3.5 models.

So what really is the difference between GPT-4 and 3.5? While GPT 3.5 only takes text prompts, the latest version of the LLM can also use images as inputs. GPT-4 can recognize objects in an image input and analyze them. Whereas, while GPT-3.5 is limited to about 3,000 words per response, GPT-4 is miles ahead with the ability to register input over 25,000 words. Reports suggest that GPT-4 is 82% less likely to deny requests for content not allowed on the portal than its predecessor. The new LLM also scores 40% higher on factuality tests. However, one of the most interesting aspects of GPT-4 is its ability to allow developers to decide their AI’s style of tone and volubility.

What is GPT-4 capable of?

OpenAI in its announcement revealed that GPT-4 is capable of scoring 90% of test-takers for the US Union Bar Exam, which is a certification test for lawyers. It is trained to be much safer than ChatGPT and reliable thanks to its factual prowess. The demo presented by OpenAI showcased that users can take a photo of a hand-drawn mock-up of a website and GPT-4 can create a real one for you. “It’s a system that can make dreams, thoughts, and ideas flourish in text in front of you,” an OpenAI employee said in the company’s video announcement.

At the time of writing, OpenAI is yet to make GPT-4’s visual input capabilities available through any platform. However, one way to test out GPT-4’s text-input capability is through a subscription to ChatGPT plus for $20. It will be interesting to see how GPT-4 changes the landscape of the AI war and whether it will be as monumental as ChatGPT.

Make way for GPT-4: The next-gen large language model

It was only back in November 2022 when OpenAI released ChatGPT which quickly became a hit registering 100 million users in just two months since its launch. ChatGPT is a trained chatbot capable of interacting conversationally with users. The conversational AI became the rage on the internet with various companies jumping on the trend and releasing their own versions of a similar AI. Now, OpenAI is ready to release the next generation large language model (LLM), GPT-4 as soon as next week. Interestingly, while ChatGPT is restricted to answering user questions in a text format, the next generation of the language model might have the ability to generate AI-powered videos, images, and more!

GPT-4 on the way

The fourth generation of the LLM, GPT-4 is likely to be released next week by OpenAI. This time around, multimodality, video processing, ability to produce AI-generated videos from simple text prompts are among some of the new features. It will reportedly be more powerful than GPT-3.5 which currently powers ChatGPT. Besides multimodality, GPT-4 may also solve ChatGPT’s current issues regarding sluggish response time to user queries.

Reportedly, OpenAi might also be working on a mobile app powered by GPT-4. As of now, even ChatGPT is a web-based model having no mobile application. It is highly likely that GPT-4 will make its way to Bing search eventually, however, both Microsoft and OpenAI have not hinted towards it as of now.

On the other hand, the Bing search engine with ChatGPT capabilities has now surpassed 100 million daily active users. The integration of ChatGPT features has allowed the company to grow Bing search usage within a month like never before. Reports suggest that roughly one-third of daily Bing preview users are using the AI chat on a daily basis. The AI race only seems to gear up right now as even Discord has updated its bots with ChatGPt-like features.
