Today, March 14 marks a whole year since OpenAI announced GPT-4, their advanced language model that introduced incremental changes over its predecessor. At the time of launch, the model exhibited outstanding human-level performance on various professional and academic benchmarks and examinations. Just earlier today, the company sparked speculation after seemingly revealing details about its upcoming GPT-4.5 Turbo large language model on their blog. The article, now inaccessible, described the model as exceeding its predecessor (GPT-4) in speed, accuracy, and scalability.

People believe a release around July or August is possible

The leak’s most exciting aspect is the mention of a “knowledge cutoff” of June 2024 for the model. This means that the AI chatbot will have access to all the information on the web before the upcoming date of June 2024. While some believe this is a mistake, others think that an OpenAI release around July or August is imminent before the company moves onto the next-generation – GPT-5.

One significant upgrade in GPT-4.5 Turbo appears to be a context length window of 256K tokens, doubling the current 128K of GPT-4 Turbo. This move seems to be OpenAI’s response to competitors launching models with increasingly large context windows. Ever since Google has rebranded Bard to Gemini and introduced new updates to its AI Model, debates have been ongoing, with people thinking about the possibility of considering Gemini as their LLM of preference. It seems a new GPT model will set things even for OpenAI, or even propel it ahead of Google’s AI chatbot.

OpenAI has yet to officially address the leak, leaving the status of GPT-4.5 Turbo and the June 2024 date shrouded in mystery. It couldn’t be a complete coincidence that the leak happened exactly on the first anniversary of the GPT-4 launch (or is it?). Stay tuned to GizmoChina for future updates regarding OpenAI.
