Whisper V3 is released! https://github.com/openai/whisper/commit/c5d42560760a05584c1...

Looks like it's just a new checkpoint for the large model. It would be nice to have updates for the smaller models too. But it'll be easy to integrate with anything using Whisper V2. I'm excited to add it to my local voice AI (https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9NC624PBFGB7)

I assume ChatGPT voice has been using Whisper V3 and I've noticed that it still has the classic Whisper hallucinations ("Thank you for watching!"), so I guess it's an incremental improvement but not revolutionary.

And here I was in bliss with the 32k context increase 3 days ago. 128k context? Absolutely insane. It feels like now the bottle neck in GPT workflows is no longer GPT, but instead its the wallet!

Such an amazing time to be alive.

The playbook OpenAI is following is similar to AWS. Start with the primitives (Text generation, Image generation, etc / EC2, S3, RDS, etc) and build value add services on top of it (Assistants API / all other AWS services). They're miles ahead of AWS and other competitors in this regard.

now with the prices reduced so much even the wallet might not be the bottle neck anymore

For GPT-4 Turbo, not GPT-4.

The new assistants API looks both super-cool and (unfortunately) a recipe for all kinds of new applications that are vulnerable to prompt injection.

Do you see a way around prompt injection? It feels like any feature they release is going to be susceptible to it.

I suspect OpenAI's black box workflow has some safeguards for it.

Most of the products announced (and the price cuts) appear to be more about increasing lock-in to the OpenAI API platform, which is not surprising given increased competition in the space. The GPTs/GPT Agents and Assistants demos in particular showed that they are a black box within a black box within a black box that you can't port anywhere else. I'm mixed on the presentation and will need to read the fine print on…

Mistral + 2 weeks of work from the community. Not as good, but private and free. It will trail OpenAI by 6-12 months in capabilities.
