So what's the point of paying for ChatGPT Plus? And who on earth chose to make the app Mac only...

That im-also-a-good-gpt2-chatbot[1] was in fact the new ChatGPT model as people were assuming few days ago here on HN[2].

Edit: may be not, name of that bot was just "gpt2-chatbot". May be that one was some initial iteration?

It is really cool that they are bringing this to free users. It does make me wonder what justifies ChatGPT plus now though...

I've noticed that the GPT-4 model's capabilities seem limited compared to its initial release. Others have also pointed this out. I suspect that making the model free might have required reducing its capabilities to meet cost efficiency goals. I'll have to try it out to see for myself.

As I commented in the other thread, really really disappointed there's no intelligence update and more of a focus on "gimmicks". The desktop app did look really good, especially as the models get smarter. Will be canceling my premium as there's no real purpose of it until that new "flag ship" model comes out.

I don't see 4o or anything new at https://platform.openai.com/docs/models

Overall I am highly skeptical of newer models as they risk worsening the completion quality to make them cheaper for OpenAI to run.

Tiktoken added support for GPT-4o: https://github.com/openai/tiktoken/commit/9d01e5670ff50eb74c...

It has an increased vocab size of 200k.

First Impressions in no particular order:

  Being able to interrupt while GPT is talking
  2x faster/cheaper
  not really a much smarter model
  Desktop app that can see screenshots
  Can display emotions with and change the sound of "it's" voice
