In a surprising turn of events, OpenAI, the leading artificial intelligence research lab, is likely to launch GPT 4.5 instead of the much-anticipated GPT 5 this year. This decision comes as the AI community eagerly awaits the next iteration of the groundbreaking language model.
GPT 4.5 is expected to be a significant upgrade over its predecessor, GPT 4 Turbo. The new model will feature a doubled context window, allowing it to understand and generate text with more context than ever before. We expect this enhancement to significantly enhance the model’s capacity to generate coherent and contextually relevant text.
Moreover, GPT 4.5 will feature an updated knowledge cut-off, ensuring that the model is up-to-date with the latest information. This feature is particularly important in the rapidly evolving field of AI, where staying current with the latest research and developments is crucial.
According to Dan Hendrycks, head of the AI Security Center, every time OpenAI updates GPT LLM, it requires ten times more computing power. Therefore, skipping GPT-4.5 and going directly to GPT-5 requires about a hundred times more computing power than GPT-4. To put this in perspective, this is equivalent to running approximately 1 million H100 wafers continuously for three months. Analysts doubt that OpenAI already has 1 million GPU servers. Furthermore, Dario Amodei, former VP of Research at OpenAI, estimates that training a cutting-edge language model like GPT 4.5 could cost up to $1 billion.
Despite these challenges, the AI community remains optimistic about the potential of GPT 4.5. As we await its launch, it’s clear that this new model will mark another significant step forward in the evolution of AI.
