The leading AI chatbot just came out with a new version, and the technology space is buzzing about the possibilities.
OpenAI has released a fourth version of ChatGPT, called GPT-4, that understands images. This means it can look at a photo and provide general information about what's in it and answer questions based on its properties.
The new version also has a larger database, allowing it to provide more accurate information and write code in all major programming languages.
OpenAI touted the chatbot's ability to communicate in other highly technical formats.
"GPT-4 is more creative and collaborative than ever before," the company wrote on its website. "It can generate, edit, and iterate with users on creative and technical writing tasks, such as composing songs, writing screenplays, or learning a user’s writing style."
The company also said the version is capable of "advanced reasoning capabilities" and provided examples of it solving complicated logical puzzles.
The first version of the chatbot was released just a few months ago and is already considered the fastest-growing consumer application in history.
Alex Valaitis, who writes a newsletter about AI, tweeted that the ChatGPT update was "biggest release since the iPhone."

Former Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers learned all about technology’s volatile highs and lows as a veteran of the internet’s early boom days during the late 1990s and the ensuing meltdown that followed the mania. And now he is seeing potential signs of the cycle repeating with another transformative technology in artificial intelligence. Chambers is trying take some of the lessons he learned while riding a wave that turned Cisco into the world's most valuable company in 2000 before a crash hammered its stock price and apply them as an investor in AI startups. He recently discussed AI's promise and perils during an interview with The Associated Press.
Tesla reported a surprise increase in sales in the third quarter as the electric car maker likely benefited from a rush by consumers to take advantage of a $7,500 credit before it expired on Sept. 30. The company reported Thursday that sales in the three months through September rose 7% compared to the same period a year ago. The gain follows two quarters of steep declines as people turned off by CEO Elon Musk’s foray into right-wing politics avoided buying his company’s cars and even protested at some dealerships. Sales rose to 497,099 vehicles, compared with 462,890 in the same period last year.
OpenAI could now be the world’s most valuable startup, ahead of Elon Musk’s SpaceX and TikTok parent company ByteDance, after a secondary stock sale designed to retain employees at the ChatGPT maker. Current and former OpenAI employees sold $6.6 billion in shares to a group of investors, pushing the privately held artificial intelligence company’s valuation to $500 billion, according to a source with knowledge of the deal who was not authorized to discuss it publicly. The valuation reflects high expectations for the future of AI technology and continues OpenAI’s remarkable trajectory from its start as a nonprofit research lab in 2015.
