It is an AI chatbot that has recently been created. It was developed in November 2022 and has created a huge excitement in people since it emerged. It will make easy and quicker essay writing or even code-writing with only one simple text prompt. Above 92% of Fortune 500 companies are using it today.
Such rapid growth has made OpenAI one of the most buzzed-about companies in the tech sphere today. Just not too long ago, Apple joined them in its new AI tool, Apple Intelligence, making it all the more powerful in this race for the forefront of AI development.
In 2024, OpenAI launched GPT-4o, supposedly their new model for ChatGPT. GPT-4o is free and also voice and vision; however, after people accused one of OpenAI’s voices, Sky, of sounding too much like Scarlett Johansson from the movie Her, it pulled that one off.
However, OpenAI has had a few issues in spite of all this success. One of its co-founders and lead scientist, Ilya Sutskever quit, and they shut down a special unit called Superalignment. Additionally, OpenAI is currently on the wrong side of the law because Alden Global Capital, that corporation owns newspapers New York Daily News and Chicago Tribune, is suing OpenAI over copyrights. It follows another lawsuit last year from The New York Times.
