Generative AI giant OpenAI unleashed its newest product on porno izlemek m?ndar edermithe world Tuesday. GPT-4, the next-generation large language model, a step up from the one that took the world by storm in the form of ChatGPT, is out.
But unlike with ChatGPT's launch last November, this isn't just a web app anyone can try out for free.
What is GPT-4?
If you're confused as to how we got to number 4 already, given that ChatGPT just came out late last year, a bit of clarity first: OpenAI has been releasing GPT language models since 2018. GPT-3, the third such release, was the most advanced model when ChatGPT, its chatbot product was released in 2022. GPT-4 is the latest and most powerful large language model from Open AI, but currently, if you only have free access to ChatGPT, you'll still be interacting with the GPT-3 model (Well, GPT-3.5if you want to get technical).

When starting a new chat, a pulldown will give you the option to use one of the old models or GPT-4. You'll want to heed OpenAI's warning that GPT-4 is not as fast as the others, because the speed difference is substantial.
