On May 11, 2024, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted the X social media post above.
He says the AI firm will demonstrate new tech that “feels magic to me.” Also, Altman emphasized the event will not show GPT-5 or a search engine.
Nevertheless, Business Insider reported the executive did not deny rumors that the company is developing an online search product.
Another Inquirer Tech article reported a domain named “search.chatgpt.com” and an SSL certification, which are strong clues pertaining to OpenAI’s online search project.
“If we can build a better search engine than Google, then we should,” Sam Altman stated during an interview with Lex Fridman.
The Verge shares more details about OpenAI’s anticipated AI assistant.
The tech news website says the new program interprets images and audio more accurately than OpenAI’s earlier transcription mods.
It would allegedly assist customer service agents to “better understand the intonation of callers’ voices or whether they’re being sarcastic.”
The AI assistant can “theoretically” help students with math or translate real-world signs.
India Times shared more details from Altman’s interview with MIT Technology Review.
The OpenAI executive said the assistant will be your “super-competent colleague.”
It would know “every email, every conversation I’ve ever had, but it doesn’t feel like an extension.”
As a result, it can handle tasks by itself. The OpenAI event will occur on May 13, 2024, at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, in the OpenAI website.
The AI trailblazer would likely transform the world significantly with its upcoming projects, so everyone should check it out.
