GPT-4o

In a recent update to the ChatGPT model, OpenAI has launched the GPT-4o variant that brings with it significant improvements to multi-step reasoning and detailed explanations. The official ChatGPT account quietly announced on social platform X, but users quickly picked up on differences in the model’s performance.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
 there's a new GPT-4o model out in ChatGPT since last week. hope you all are enjoying it and check it out if you haven't! we think you'll like it 😃— ChatGPT (@ChatGPTapp) <a href="https://twitter.com/ChatGPTapp/status/1823109016223957387?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">August 12, 2024</a>

ChatGPT’s new GPT-4o model, which is already live within the system, responds with more comprehensive step-by-step reasoning — a change many users have found helpful. This improvement has led to higher accuracy responses, particularly for complex queries that require logical flow and detailed explanation. Users at large have also noted stronger inherent image generation capabilities resulting in higher quality and accurate visuals compared to its predecessor.

The most notable modification in the updated GPT-4o model is its improved ability to generate images. Formerly, OpenAI’s ChatGPT relied on DALL-E 3 to create images from text prompts. However, this has changed with the latest release of GPT-4o which can now generate images by itself without using DALL-E 3. This is significant because GPT-4o was designed natively multimodal and capable of treating both text and pixels as tokens. Therefore it can create better quality pictures faster and understand text prompts better.
The ability to generate images independently speeds up and improves the accuracy and reality of generated content. Users claim that visual outputs by GPT-4o are more consistent with their input texts thus making the whole experience seamless and integrated within ChatGPT environment.

However, not all feedback has been positive. Specifically, users have criticized OpenAI’s lack of transparency about what exactly changed in this update. The company has yet to fully describe how this version of GPT-4o differs from earlier ones – leaving many people to wonder about distinctions between the ChatGPT variant and the version available through OpenAI’s API.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
 Another release without release notes. I get the point (also made by Google about their mysterious new model) that is hard to write release notes for LLMs, but I would love to see some attempt to explain what changed. People actually use ChatGPT for real tasks &amp; need guidance. <a href="https://t.co/hOKYXiF71N" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://t.co/hOKYXiF71N</a>— Ethan Mollick (@emollick) <a href="https://twitter.com/emollick/status/1823213027027775937?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">August 13, 2024</a>

Acknowledging these concerns, an OpenAI spokesperson said that indeed there may be differences between the ChatGPT variant and the API variant. This is because they are still working on making the model better suited for different use cases; while optimizing it to promote user interaction within ChatGPT but focusing more on developer needs with the API version.
With increasing numbers of people trying out updated GPT-4o, there will be a growing demand for additional explanations from Open AI. At present, however, chat GPT improvements are being made to improve user experience but questions about what exactly has changed remain unanswered.
