TLDR OpenAI has released GPT-4, a multi-modal language model that outperforms humans on certain tasks, but the lack of technical information and proprietary data raises concerns about transparency and accountability.

Key insights

  • πŸ€–
    GPT-4 is a large multi-modal model that accepts image and text inputs emitting text outputs, potentially changing the paradigm of natural language interfaces.
  • 🌟
    GPT-4 has the ability to reason over infographics and screenshots, opening up new possibilities for data analysis and interpretation.
  • πŸ’»
    GPT-4 performs impressively on human tests, surpassing the performance of its predecessor GPT 3.5 and even scoring in the top 10% on a simulated bar exam.
  • πŸ€–
    GPT-4's performance with vision is impressive and outperforms GPT 3.5.
  • πŸ€–
    GPT-4 is designed to be a "safety aware model" with a lot of effort put into mitigating risks.
  • πŸ€–
    GPT-4's language model can be fine-tuned using reinforcement learning with human feedback, allowing it to be more helpful and assist in completing tasks.
  • πŸ€–
    GPT-4 was used to help with wording, formatting, and styling throughout the technical report, raising questions about the extent of AI's influence on human creativity and writing.
  • πŸ€–
    OpenAI is releasing an API for GPT-4 and granting limited access to those who contribute high quality evals, potentially improving the model's performance.
