🚀First glance at Chat GPT-4
OpenAI has announced its next-generation language model, GPT-4, which is expected to revolutionize the way people use the internet for work, play, and creation. GPT-4 has the ability to work with photos and is capable of generating code in all major programming languages. Its features also include passing standardized exams, drafting lawsuits, and building a working website from a hand-drawn sketch. In addition, it can provide more detailed and longer written responses and can streamline work across various industries. However, the technology has raised questions about how AI tools can upend professions, enable students to cheat, and shift the way people use technology.
🚀 Microsoft's ChatGPT-Powered Bing Opens Up to Public, Giving Users Access to GPT-4 for Free
Microsoft's ChatGPT-powered version of Bing was launched last month in a limited beta, and it has since garnered a lot of attention and respect for the search engine. The good news is that Microsoft has now opened up the new Bing to almost everyone who wants to use it. Even though the signup page still says "join the waiting list," all you have to do is sign in to get instant access.
Although Microsoft has yet to confirm the change, it may announce Bing changes at an event it's holding today called "Reinventing productivity with AI," where the company is expected to introduce AI-powered tools for its Microsoft 365 suite and SalesForce rival Dynamic 365.
It has been confirmed that the new Bing has been powered by the GPT-4 engine for the last five weeks, which is even before OpenAI unveiled it two days ago. OpenAI's latest language model has been making waves in the tech world with its impressive ability to handle both text and images, passing simulated exams with flying colors and outperforming other language models in benchmark tests.
Bing provides users with a taste of GPT-4 without the need to pay for it or be a developer. However, the search engine got off to a rocky start, with up to 10 million users signing up to test it. Some were able to "jailbreak" the chatbot, causing it to provide false information and essentially gaslight users. As a result, Microsoft had to limit conversations, but it has since removed some of those limits after strengthening the search engine's "guardrails."
Microsoft has been a strong supporter of OpenAI and ChatGPT, investing $2 billion dollars in the company last year and further expanding the pact earlier this year with a "multibillion dollar" investment that includes new supercomputers to accelerate OpenAI's research.
