Customs GPTs, GPT-4 Turbo, Store and Assistants API: The Biggest Takeaways from OpenAI DevDay 2023
Here are all the highlights from the OpenAI's first-ever developer conference.
OpenAI had its first DevDay 2023 developer conference at the SVN West facility in San Francisco. The company then went on to introduce GPT-4 Turbo, custom GPTs, a no-code tool that allows you to create your own ChatGPT, a custom "App Store" where these custom GPTs will be available for purchase, and an Assistant API that will make life much easier for developers.
The conference was kicked off by Sam Altman himself, who talked about the milestones OpenAI has achieved so far in the last year.
100 milion active users are using ChatGPT weekly. 2 milion developers are actively using its API for a wide range of use cases, the company said.
Altman announced the news, receiving healthy rounds of applause from the upbeat and enthusiastic crowd. He then brought on stage Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, who joked about the partnership and praised OpenAI for creating something "magical".
Nadella also mentioned that the partnership with OpenAI has "dramatically changed" Azure, and that Microsoft's job is to provide OpenAI with the best system for creating the best models. And that Microsoft is fully committed to providing OpenAI with the best models and computing, which is absolutely key for OpenAI. Let's take a look at what all was presented.
Here are the biggest takeaways from the OpenAI DevDay:
GPT-4 Turbo: GPT-4 Turbo has a larger context window (128,000 tokens) than Claude 2 (100,000 tokens). It can accept images and generate human-quality speech as its output. The GPT-4 Turbo comes in two versions: a strictly text-analysing version and another that comprehends both text and images. Also the price per 1000 tokens is now 3x cheaper.
Fine-tuning for GPT-4: Now researchers can collaborate with companies to develop specialized models, thanks to the expanded customizability of the 16K version.
Custom GPTs: OpenAI is now offering custom versions of ChatGPT that anyone can easily build for specific tasks. This means that businesses and individuals can now create their own AI assistants that are tailored to their specific needs. For example, a business could create a ChatGPT assistant to help with customer service, while an individual could create a ChatGPT assistant to help with personal tasks such as email management or scheduling.
OpenAI is initially offering two custom GPTs: Canva AI and Zapier AI. Canva AI is a ChatGPT assistant that helps users with design tasks, while Zapier AI is a ChatGPT assistant that helps users automate workflows. OpenAI plans to offer additional GPTs in the future, including GPTs for specific industries such as healthcare and finance.
Assistants API: OpenAI's new Assistants API helps developers build agent-like experiences in their applications. It uses generative AI models to create assistants that can perform specific tasks, such as data analysis and coding. The API is backed by Code Interpreter, OpenAI's in-house tool for writing and running code
GPT Store: In late November, OpenAI will launch the GPT Store, where developers can buy and sell custom GPTs. This will allow developers to monetize their work and create a marketplace for custom AI assistants.
Copyright Shield: ChatGPT's copyright protection program safeguards enterprise and API customers from copyright lawsuit.
New interface for ChatGPT: New interface features simple dark design with the OpenAI logo and the prompt "How can I help you today?" prominently displayed. The revamped interface makes switching between ChatGPT and DALL-E 3 a breeze.
ChatGPT now has updated information: ChatGPT's knowledge base has been updated from September 2021 to April 2023 with the help of GPT-4. ChatGPT can now also search PDFs and other documents.
Startup Mentor: Altman also demonstrated the Startup Mentor program, showing how it can be used to create a GPT that provides advice to startup founders. He highlighted the ease with which GPTs with specific knowledge and capabilities can be created.
This is the biggest news that Sam Altman presented at his first conference. On top of that, he gave $500 worth of credits to all the guests in the audience. At the end, Altman promised that we can look forward to another conference next year again, and ended by saying that what we see now is nothing compared to what they have coming up.
