OpenAI FOCUSES ON GPT-4, NOT GPT-5

Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, spoke at a recent MIT event and gave us real insights into the near future of his company. The headline: GPT-5 is not being trained and won’t be for some time.

You can hear the sizzle of steam coming off the wet coals of the AGI hype train as Altman rains on our parade.

Many pundits assumed that OpenAI would jump back into the race with vigor and start working on the GPT-5 model as soon as they launched GPT-4. Welp, turns out we are all wrong.

That’s not the first time this will happen.

Altman mentioned that factoid as an off-handed smack to the letter calling for a pause on AI developments. He’s focused on safety and wants to set the record straight.

Lost in that noise is the extra work of finding new uses for their brand-new model, GPT-4.

Here we are, dreaming of a new car when the latest model has only been on the street for a month.

This rapid AI timeline is screwing with our perception.

OpenAI is working on making GPT-4 better at many things, finding ways to work to shrink parameter sizes and make unique AI models work together.

We don’t need a bigger, newer version of the same Large Langauge Model to improve our AI systems.

Altman and the rest of the talented executive team are focusing on squeezing all the utility out of their current model before they jump to the next.

That’s thinking three steps ahead.

GOOGLE NEEDS TO UPGRADE ITS SEARCH ENGINE FAST

Samsung dropped the hammer, and Google employees felt the crushing weight of panic.

Their long-time collaborator is considering switching their default search engine to Bing. It’s not confirmed, but it feels like AI is involved. 

Bing chat is driving more and more queries to Microsoft, and Bard did not set the world on fire.

Google confirmed that they’re adding AI integrations into their search engine and that their new contract with Samsung is still in the negotiation phase.

The market dominance that shields Google from competitors is chipping away, and cracks are showing.

Multiple teams at Google are working to reimagine their search engine and give the tool new life. Every part of that involves AI.

More significant concerns are looming under the surface.

Microsoft securing the Samsung contract would be a blow, but that’s doubtful, and we can’t predict that outcome.

What we can say for sure is that Google is fighting to keep up.

They don’t want to lose, and they have a lot of research muscle and team energy to flex.

We know that new search integrations are coming.

The nail-biting worry is how much private knowledge is leaking to the press from the team at Google.

Leaks show internal conflict and dissatisfaction. It’s a bad look.

It could be part of a strategic leak by Google to reaffirm their work to Samsung, but that’s unlikely.

Keep an eye on this. We’re seeing more and more stories like this, and they won’t stop till Google makes a splash in the AI mark.
