GPT-4

AI & Machine Learning

Definitions

  1. OpenAI's fourth-generation Generative Pre-trained Transformer, a large multimodal model capable of processing both text and images. Released in March 2023, GPT-4 represented a significant leap in reasoning, coding ability, and instruction-following over GPT-3.5. It powers ChatGPT Plus and is available via API with various configurations including GPT-4 Turbo (faster, cheaper, 128K context) and GPT-4o (optimized for speed and multimodal tasks). GPT-4 became the benchmark against which all other language models are measured, though its proprietary nature and high API costs drove demand for open alternatives. Its coding capabilities made it a foundational tool for AI-assisted software development.

    In plain English: OpenAI's most well-known advanced AI model that can understand text and images, write code, and reason through complex problems. It powers ChatGPT and many AI-powered applications.
