With the rapid development of artificial intelligence today, OpenAI's GPT-4 has undoubtedly become a hot topic. As a large language model (LLM), the GPT series has continued to attract global attention and heated discussions since its launch in 2018. These models are not just simple chatbots, but powerful tools with multiple skills such as generating complex text and understanding natural language. So, what is so special about this latest GPT-4? In which direction will it lead us in terms of technology, application and future potential?
Generative Pre-training (GP) is a long-standing concept in the field of machine learning, originally used in semi-supervised learning. The model is initially trained on an unlabeled dataset and then classified on the labeled dataset. This two-stage training method enables the model to generate more accurate results.
In 2017, Google researchers published "Attention Is All You Need", ushering in a new era based on the Transformer architecture, which ultimately gave rise to pre-training models like BERT.
With the launch of OpenAI’s first GPT-1 model in 2018, the pace of development of this series has gradually accelerated. GPT-4, coming out in 2023, inherits GP technology, making these large language models more generative and adaptable to different tasks.
The technical progress of GPT-4 is reflected in many aspects, including the size of the model and the diversity of training data. According to the latest information, GPT-4 is a multi-modal model capable of processing text and image inputs, which makes it a revolutionary improvement in its application range.
OpenAI’s latest version, GPT-4, can generate text with higher accuracy and perform better at understanding user needs.
With the development of multi-modal models, OpenAI’s GPT-4 can process not only text but also images, which means it can combine vision and language when creating new content. This feature enhances its application potential in education, entertainment, medical and other fields.
For example, Visual ChatGPT launched by Micorosft is a powerful attempt to combine GPT with the visual basic model and be able to process images and text.
Different industries have begun to rely on GPT systems tuned for specific tasks, such as Salesforce's EinsteinGPT and Bloomberg's BloombergGPT. These proprietary models can correspond to the needs of their respective fields, further broadening the application scope of GPT technology.
Although the GPT series models provide us with unprecedented convenience and innovation, they are also accompanied by a series of challenges, including increasingly prominent issues of ethics, data privacy and security. While promoting technological progress and commercialization, how to properly manage these issues has become the biggest doubt in the current industry.
On the boundary of controlling the development of artificial intelligence, OpenAI has begun to think about how to combine innovation and
