OpenAI Introduces GPT-4o
On Monday (May 13), OpenAI launched a new AI model called ‘GPT-4o’ that carries the intelligence of Chat GPT-4 but is much faster. The best part is it will be available to users on the free OpenAI plan as well.
This announcement comes after Sam Altman clarified last week that OpenAI is not working on an AI search engine but rather on ChatGPT and GPT-4 updates.
Let’s start by discussing the name. The “o” in GPT4o stands for omni. This means it brings together voice, text, and image into a single model, making it faster than the previous models.
GPT-4o will first be rolled out to Plus and Team users and then to Enterprise users in the near future. Although it’ll be available for free, that will come with a limit—and once that limit is reached, the tool will automatically switch back to GPT-3.5.
The company hasn’t revealed what this limit is going to be, but it added that the chat limit for Plus users will be at least 5x more than free users. Moreover, Teams and Enterprise users will have even higher limits.
