• OpenAI also introduced voice and vision capabilities, launched DALL-E 3, and released ChatGPT Enterprise for enterprise customers.

How does ChatGPT help people in their lives?

ChatGPT helps people in various aspects of their lives and provides them with confidence and assistance.

• ChatGPT assists with translation and cultural nuances, enabling respectful communication.
• It empowers creatives by leveling with them and offering valuable support.
• ChatGPT aids in daily activities like grocery shopping and meal planning.
• It helps with tasks like building spreadsheets and providing quick solutions.
• ChatGPT offers friendly and patient assistance, giving people their time back.
• It facilitates accessibility for individuals with physical impairments, especially through voice input and back-and-forth dialogue.

OpenAI introduces new modalities and customization options in the API

• You can bring external knowledge into your projects
• GPT-4 Turbo with vision and a new text-to-speech model is now available in the API
• DALL-E 3 is being used by customers like Coke to generate images and designs
• GPT-4 Turbo can now accept images as inputs and generate captions and classifications
• New customization option with Whisper V3, an improved speech recognition model

Introducing Custom Models for creating tailored models for specific use cases

• Researchers will work closely with companies to create custom models.
• Modifications include domain-specific pre-training and custom RL post-training.

Azure and OpenAI have built a strong partnership focused on innovative infrastructure and developer support.

• Azure has transformed its system to support the unique needs of OpenAI's workload and models.
• Microsoft is committed to utilizing OpenAI APIs in its own products and offerings, including GitHub Copilot.

OpenAI is committed to providing the best systems and computing for training and inference.

• OpenAI's goal is to empower every person and organization on the planet through AI.
• Safety is a top priority for OpenAI, and they work closely with builders to ensure it is integrated from the start.

GPTs make it easy to customize and build agent-like experiences

• Code.org crafted Lesson Planner GPT to provide an engaging experience for middle schoolers
• Canva built a GPT that lets you start designing by describing what you want in natural language
• Zapier has built a GPT that lets you perform actions across 6,000 applications

Demonstration of GPT capabilities and its potential

• GPT can connect with external platforms like Zapier and use AI actions
• GPT ensures security and asks for permission before performing actions or sharing data
• GPT can take instructions, decide which capability to call, and execute actions
• Example of using GPT to interact with calendar and identify conflicts
• Example of using GPT to send a message and get a response from another person

Creating a GPT model with custom actions and capabilities

• Explaining the configure tab and its functionalities
• Uploading a lecture on startup advice and setting up instructions
• Testing the GPT model with a common hiring question
• Publishing the model and adding more content and actions

GPT Store for sharing and discovering ChatGPT creations

• Private or public sharing of GPT creations with links
• Revenue sharing for creators of useful and popular GPTs

The assistant in the app allows users to have a specialized assistant with just a few lines of code.

• Function call is a powerful feature that guarantees JSON output with no added latency and allows invoking multiple functions at once.
• The assistant is aware of functions, including those to annotate the map, and can interact fluidly with the components and features of the app.

Stateful API eliminates complexity.

• OpenAI provides a stateful API that removes the need to resend the entire conversation history and handle context windows.
• The steps taken by the API tools can be viewed in the developer dashboard, including the functions and parameters used.

OpenAI introduced GPTs, custom versions of GPT, and launched the Assistants API.

• Gradual iterative deployment is important to get a feel for the capabilities of these agents.
• The new GPT-4 Turbo model offers improved function calling, lowered pricing, and new modalities.

AI is a technological and societal revolution

• AI will empower individuals to build and create on a larger scale than ever before.
• Integrating intelligence everywhere will give us all superpowers on demand.
