USA:  With conversational capabilities that were far beyond anything seen before, OpenAI's ChatGPT completely shook up the artificial intelligence community. The popular chatbot interface used the GPT-3 framework as its foundation.

A new language model, GPT-4, which is reportedly more powerful and capable than its predecessor GPT-3, is currently being prepared by an AI research organization. Here's what we currently know.

Information about the launch of GPT-4 was released on March 9 at the start of the one-hour hybrid information event "AI in Focus - Digital Kickoff".

Four Microsoft Germany employees spoke at length about their Azure-OpenAI offering and large language models (LLMs) such as the GPT series.

The upcoming release of GPT-4 was casually mentioned by Andreas Braun, CTO of Microsoft Germany.

GPT-4, an upcoming language model from OpenAI, is multimodal. It can operate in at least four different modes including visual, audio, text and video.

Remember that ChatGPT was powered by GPT-3, which could only interpret and produce text. The text generation capabilities of GPT-3 and Dall-E 2, an OpenAI tool for producing realistic images/art from a natural language description, may be added to upcoming Generative AI.

According to Braun, GPT-4 will revolutionize the field of artificial intelligence and change the way business is done. It appears that GPT-4 works in all languages and is multimodal.

You can make a request in Spanish and ChatGPT will respond with text that is generated in English using its capabilities. This innovation would greatly benefit existing translation tools.

GPT-3-based human languages and code are produced by ChatGPT as output. Many thought that OpenAI's upcoming products, including GPT-4, would be even better at generating code as the company was reportedly hiring knowledgeable programmers and software developers earlier this year.

Microsoft's Github Copilot, which is currently powered by GPT-3, may receive a more powerful update with GPT-4, which will improve the tool's ability to convert natural language to code.

Could the language model already be in use despite the fact that GPT-4 will not be released until next week? Well, nothing official has been announced.

However, some believe that GPT-4 is already driving the recently introduced ChatGPT feature within Microsoft's Bing search engine. The claim is valid, although unexpected, given that Microsoft recently became the largest shareholder in OpenAI.
