The creators of ChatGPT have released a new improved version that is much more powerful than the previous one.
ChatGPT-4 is the latest iteration of the AI phenomenon that flourished in 2023 – something very exciting or downright intimidating, depending on how you look at technology (and perhaps what you do for a living).
Here’s everything you need to know about how to use it and what it can do.
What is GPT4?
GPT-4 comes from OpenAI, the San Francisco-based artificial intelligence company behind ChatGPT.
The company calls it its “most advanced system that delivers safer, more helpful responses.”
GPT-4 has several significant advantages over its predecessor GPT-3. The important thing is that it can ask for images and words when creating tasks.
Instead of just asking the software a verbal question, GPT-4 users can now “show” an image that they can analyze and answer questions. For example, a user might enter an image of a set of ingredients and ask them to design their own dinner recipe.
According to its inventors, GPT-4 has greatly improved “yield”, which means it can produce answers that stretch to 25,000 words or more. The previous version was limited to about 3000 words.
Sam Altman, general manager of OpenAI, said the company spent six months fine-tuning the new software to make it less prone to issues such as AI “hallucinations” – a phenomenon that chatbots use to provide “safe” answers to questions. with materials that do not matter resemblance to reality.
GPT-4 is said to be 82% less likely to respond to requests for “prohibited content” or material flagged as inappropriate and not to be used. OpenAI also claims that it is 40% more likely to provide “actual answers”.
How can I use GPT-4?
GPT-4 is currently only available to software developers and paid subscribers to the Open AI ChatGPT+ service. ChatGPT+ costs $20 (£16) per month. Read more about registration here.
However, Microsoft, one of the largest investors in OpenAI, has integrated it into an enhanced version of its Bing search engine.
A preview is now available so you can get a feel for what the GPT-4 is capable of. You can also subscribe to the search engine’s full waiting list. Find it here.
Microsoft stated, “If you’ve used the new Bing preview at any point in the last five weeks, you’ve already experienced an early release of this powerful model.”
What can GPT-4 do?
I Reporter Ruth Comerford has put together an overview of some of the things the GPT-4 can do for you.
Learn language
Duolingo used GPT-4 for its new “Max” plan, which allows users to practice speaking skills with the app’s chatbot. It currently works in 26 languages but works best with European languages.
Come up with recipes
With a new image recognition and decoding feature, users can ask the GPT-4 to recommend meals and snacks based on their uploaded photos. Even show him a picture of your refrigerator from the inside.
Make a video game
Game fans can use the GPT-4 to program entire video game programs in less than an hour without even knowing JavaScript. User said he can download a simple game of ping pong with a ball in one minute.
Create a Google Chrome Extension
Creating Google Chrome extensions – programs that can be installed to change the functionality of the browser – can be done quickly with no programming experience.
Plan your vacation
The chatbot can collect information about where to stay, what to do and where to eat, as well as suggest updates to previous plans based on preferences it learns from previous interactions.
File a tax return
Although researchers warn against the use of AI, an OpenAI contributor has proven that taxes can be filed accurately with AI.
pass exams
GPT-4 outperforms its predecessor on a number of technical issues, including math problems, and can detect trick questions more consistently. He excelled in several court cases, scoring 90 percent on the bar exam that lawyers must take and 88 percent on the law school entrance exam.
Describe pictures to blind people
The new multimodal feature means the user can upload a photo and ask GPT-4 to describe it. It will also explain exactly why the photo is, for example, funny or sad. Be My Eyes, an assistive technology company for the blind, is using GPT-4’s image input capabilities to develop a feature that can describe and answer questions about everyday scenes and interactions.
Create a web page from a sketch
You can create a unique website using the image input function from a discarded drawing. Live, an OpenAI researcher drew on a piece of paper a rough sketch of a website that publishes jokes. He took a photo of his pencil sketch and uploaded it to GPT-4. The layout immediately brought out code for a website that was fully functional, working, and designed exactly as drawn.
