OpenAI has updated its artificial intelligence model to make it sound more like a human when it talks. This new feature can even try to figure out people’s moods based on their tone and expressions. It’s reminiscent of the 2013 movie “Her, ” where a man falls in love with an AI operating system. Although OpenAI’s new model isn’t designed for romance, it does have some impressive capabilities.
The new AI model, called GPT-4o (short for “omni”), can work faster than older versions and handle text, audio, and video all at once. This model will power OpenAI’s popular ChatGPT chatbot, and everyone, even those using the free version, will get access to it soon. OpenAI announced this during a short live-streamed event. CEO Sam Altman hinted at the model’s abilities by posting the word “her” on social media, referencing the movie.
During the demonstration, OpenAI’s Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and other executives showed off what the new AI can do. The AI bot talked in real-time and could add emotion to its voice when asked, making it sound more dramatic. It also helped solve a simple math problem by guiding through the steps without just giving the answer. Additionally, it handled a complex coding problem, demonstrating its versatility.
