OpenAI Japan CEO Tadao Nagasaki has announced the upcoming release of 'GPT Next,' a next-generation AI model expected to be 100 times more powerful than its predecessors. This new model, set to be released by the end of 2024, is anticipated to significantly advance AI capabilities, leveraging an exponential growth pattern distinct from traditional software. The model's effective computational load is projected to be 100 times greater than that of GPT-4, and it will utilize a miniature version of the Strawberry training framework. Nagasaki emphasized the rapid pace of AI development and the challenges in controlling increasingly intelligent systems. The announcement was made at the KDDI Summit 2024, where it was also revealed that 'GPT Next' aims for a 3 OOMs Boost.
