With additional funding from Microsoft, OpenAI, led by Sam Altman, is developing the next AI Model ChatGPT 5.
The founder of OpenAI-backed ChatGPT, Sam Altman, intends to develop ChatGPT 5, a more sophisticated and superintelligent AI model. In addition, he disclosed his intentions to acquire additional Microsoft funds to finance the development and training of Artificial Intelligence (AI) ChatGPT 5.
As per available reports, information regarding the anticipated ChatGPT 5’s features, functions, accessibility, and release dates is still unknown.
According to Sam Altman, the AI model’s capabilities and training are akin to a “guessing game” and cannot be disclosed or predicted until we begin.
Nevertheless, the founder of OpenAI was sure that the forthcoming AI model would be an improvement over its predecessor by incorporating more functionalities.
OpenAI is Developing ChatGPT 5, a Next-Generation AI model
Following the successful release of ChatGPT 4, which also included a user-customized version, the OpenAI startup commenced development on ChatGPT 5, the next-generation AI model.
Although the capabilities, features, and distinctions from the current ChatGPT 4 remain unknown, the new model will likely improve over its predecessor and include additional functions. Sam Altman stated that the training data for ChatGPT 5 will be a combination of company-owned and publicly accessible datasets from the internet.
The choice to enhance the ChatGPT, which OpenAI supports, was made during a period of rapid industry evolution marked by increased competition from various Chatbots (e.g., Bard, Grok by Elon Musk, and other new startup companies striving to establish a foothold in the AI sector).
OpenAI is Pursuing Further Funding to Develop ChatGPT
Sam Altman reportedly seeks additional funding from Microsoft, a leading investor, to develop “superintelligent” technological tools as intelligent as humans. Significantly, should it be finalized, the additional financing will supplement the $10 billion “multiyear” agreement that Microsoft and OpenAI already established earlier this year.
The partnership, which commenced in 2019 with an initial investment of $1 billion, will continue to pursue OpenAI’s objective of ensuring the safety and utility of artificial general intelligence (AGI).
Altman’s request for additional funding for ChatGPT followed recent rumors that Google was considering investing in Character.AI, a venture founded by former Google staff.
Recent reports indicate that Google is discussing with two former Character AI startup employees. In terms of financial support, AI will advance the update task.
It is worth noting that Google and Character are already collaborators, which train models utilizing Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) and Google’s cloud services.
The new investment discussions will strengthen the partnership, making it a formidable competitor to other AI firms in this industry that has been revolutionized.
