Only four months ago, the company OpenAI launched ChatGPT and made an innovative change that will be remembered for a long time. Now, after several months of using this tool, we can confirm its effectiveness, but also certain limitations. It was the subsequent versions that tried to correct those shortcomings and make this tool even more useful.
A few days ago, the new version of ChatGPT was officially launched and we can already see that it is generating a lot of attention from content creators. And not only theirs. Ever since this software appeared, everyone has been talking about it. Whether you’re into writing, UX/UI design, or still in school/college, you’ve surely tried the capabilities of this tool and realized how powerful a weapon it is.
Now they say the next version is even more accurate and we’re sure it’s going to rock the world even more. The company emphasizes that ChatGPT-4 has been upgraded to such a level that it can now tackle more complex tasks. Does this mean it will be able to write scientific papers as well? It remains to be seen. We certainly look forward to testing this tool in the future.
Now let’s find out more about the new version of this software and what are its capabilities and limitations.
What is ChatGPT-4?
Let’s start with the name – the abbreviation GPT-4 stands for “generative pre trained transformer 4.” This practically means that it is the fourth iteration of OpenAI software that analyzes a huge amount of information to generate text that sounds like human speech or to answer questions.
If we want to further clarify its function, we can add that it is a skillfully connected synergy of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and the creation of a natural flow of language. The latter refers to the power of a computer to understand and use our languages much like a human being.
Thanks to this, a conversation with ChatGPT software looks just like when you are talking to someone you know. It manages to communicate effortlessly and intuitively. Thanks to those features, it managed to quickly become one of the main tools used by, we won’t exaggerate if we write this, EVERYONE. Even just out of curiosity.
What’s new in ChatGPT-4 compared to previous versions?
The company states that they spent six months working on this version with only one goal – to make the software even safer to use. Now the probability of not responding to queries looking for illegal content is at a high 82%.
They also point out that with the help of the new version of the chatbot, users will have a more efficient and effective interaction with artificial intelligence. What’s more, users will be able to produce content in their own personal style, as ChatGPT recognizes the way an individual writes. And what else does this software bring?
- Image Recognition – this is a big novelty that comes to us in the new version. Previously, the chatbot could only recognize and understand the text. With the latest version of the software, users will be able to generate content through photos as well. For example, it looks like this – you take a photo of the ingredients you have in the fridge and it suggests recipes for lunch or dinner that contain those ingredients.
- Payment – another significant novelty introduced by OpenAI this time is a subscription. For those who have already tried the ChatGPT free version and convinced themselves of its effectiveness, the price of $20 per month is probably not a big expense.
- Multilingual capacity – we were already able to make sure that this chatbot can understand and create content in many languages. Now that number is increasing even more and can answer more related questions in as many as 26 languages.
- The way artificial intelligence is managed – the latest version of ChatGPT allows users to customize the behavior of the AI to themselves. In this way, the chatbot will understand your commands better and more precisely.
- It processes up to 25,000 words – this is great information because it means it is four times faster than the previous version. So for example, if you give it three different schedules or calendars, it can suggest several best times to meet with a client.
What are the limitations of the latest version of this software?
There is still a limitation related to the age of the information. Therefore, the information that the chatbot retrieves still relates to those created before 2021. This leads to the conclusion that for the most recent information, you should still look for another source. OpenAI says, in one of the blog posts, that the latest version of the software still has a number of limitations that they are working hard to minimize.
They claim that ChatGPT-4 is still not 100% reliable and it is not out of the question that it will occasionally “hallucinate” just like their previous versions. This term is often used for the phenomenon related to artificial intelligence when it happens to make up facts or draw wrong conclusions.
Quality AI content generators are increasingly in demand
As the world increasingly turns to artificial intelligence, the need to create a more accurate and high-quality content generator also increases. Certainly, ChatGPT has proven to be a great tool, which can help us a lot in our daily work. However, there is still a lot of work waiting for the creators of this software, in order to correct the errors that occur during use.
We are here to monitor all changes and improvements of this software, to constantly test it, as well as all its limitations, and to bring you our impressions. We are convinced that by the end of this year, we will see more good innovations from the OpenAI team, so we are looking forward to them in advance.
