News of the Day

OpenAI has launched a new AI model, GPT-4o, and a desktop version of ChatGPT, accompanied by an updated user interface, aiming to enhance the chatbot's capabilities. GPT-4o, now available to all users, boasts improved speed and quality in text, video, and audio interactions. Notably, users will soon be able to video chat with ChatGPT, marking a significant advancement in user experience. The model's omni capabilities enable it to handle 50 languages, with OpenAI's API offering developers access to the new model for application development. GPT-4o's performance surpasses that of GPT-4 Turbo, being twice as fast and half the cost.

The launch represents OpenAI's strategic move to maintain its leading position in the generative AI market, amid growing competition and concerns regarding technology ethics and bias.
