OpenAI announced more improvements to its large language models, GPT-4 and GPT-3.5, including updated knowledge bases and a much longer context window. The company says it will also follow Google and Microsoft\u2019s lead and begin protecting customers against copyright lawsuits. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
GPT-4 Turbo, currently available via an API preview, has been trained with information dating to April 2023, the company announced Monday at its first-ever developer conference<\/a>. The earlier version of GPT-4 released in March<\/a> only learned from data dated up to September 2021. OpenAI plans to release a production-ready Turbo model in the next few weeks but did not give an exact date.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n GPT-4 Turbo is cheaper to run for developers<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n GPT-4 Turbo will also \u201csee\u201d more data, with a 128K context window, which OpenAI says is \u201cequivalent to more than 300 pages of text in a single prompt.\u201d Generally, larger context windows let large language models like GPT understand more of the question and offer more thought-out responses. Previously, OpenAI released two versions of GPT-4, one with a context window of only 8K and another at 32K.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n OpenAI says GPT-4 Turbo is cheaper to run for developers. Input will cost only $0.01 per 1,000 tokens \u2014 the basic unit of text or code for LLMs to read \u2014 compared to the $0.03 on GPT-4.\u00a0Each output will be $0.03 per 1,000 tokens. Overall, OpenAI says the new version of GPT-4 is three times cheaper than the earlier ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n This newest version of GPT-4 will still accept image prompts, text-to-speech requests, and integrate DALL-E 3, a feature first announced in October<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The company says the improvements to GPT-4 Turbo mean users can ask the model to perform more complex tasks in one prompt. People can even tell GPT-4 Turbo to specifically use the coding language of their choice for results, like code in XML or JSON.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Companies using the GPT-3.5 Turbo model will also see improvements in context windows, functionality, and pricing. It will have a 16K context window by default and the same function updates as GPT-4 Turbo. GPT-3.5 Turbo will cost $0.01 for input and $0.002 for output.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Beyond improvements to the flagship model, OpenAI also announced it will follow in the footsteps of Microsoft and Google and provide copyright indemnity to enterprise users through a program called Copyright Shield.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cWe will now step in and defend our customers, and pay the costs incurred, if you face legal claims around copyright infringement,\u201d the company said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
