OpenAI just announced a few updates to its flagship conversational AI model, ChatGPT, and among them is a new app and interface, starring the system's new user-facing personality: a giant black dot. Onstage at the OpenAI Spring Event, CTO Mira Murati alluded to the changes: "We know that these models get more and more complex, but we want the experience of interaction to actually become more natural, easy, and for you not to focus on the UI at all." In one sense it is a positive and decisive change, a nod to the minimalism Apple once embraced.
As it turned out, the announcement was a new model called ChatGPT 4o -- the "o" stands for "omni"-- which offers greater responsiveness to voice prompts, as well as better vision capabilities. “GPT-4o reasons across voice, text and vision,” OpenAI CTO Mira Murati said during a keynote presentation at OpenAI’s offices in San Francisco.
