OpenAI might be getting ready to release a new AI model dubbed Strawberry with reasoning capabilities in two weeks.
The AI model will reportedly ship as part of ChatGPT, but as a standalone service.
At launch, the model's capabilities may be limited to text-generation, though plans to make it multimodal could be in the works.
After months of speculation and rumors, OpenAI might be gearing up to release its much-anticipated 'reasoning' AI model, Strawberry, in two weeks (via The Information ).
For context, the AI model has reportedly been under development over the past few months, and as it now seems, the ChatGPT maker is ready to ship it to broad availability. According to multiple reports about Strawberry, the AI model will ship with enhanced reasoning capabilities, allowing it to handle complex tasks.
According to The Information, the AI model will ship as part of ChatGPT, but as a standalone service. Details regarding how OpenAI plans to achieve this remain slim at best. Strawberry's capabilities will fairly be limited to text generation, but there might be plans to make it multimodal via new updates.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has openly blasted GPT-4's performance , indicating it "kind of sucks." Altman also promised with "a high degree of scientific certainty" that GPT-5 will be smarter than the " mildly embarrassing at best " GPT-4. According to Altman, "GPT-4 is the dumbest model any of you will ever have to use again, by a lot. It's important to ship early and often, and we believe in iterative deployment."
Amid bankruptcy claims, it's also clear that Altman isn't shy about breaking the bank to ship advanced AI models:
"I think giving people really capable tools and letting them figure out how they're going to use this to build the future is a super good thing to do, and is super valuable, and I am super willing to bet on the ingenuity of you all and everybody else in the world to figure out what to do about this. There is probably some more business-minded person than me at OpenAI somewhere that is worried about how much we're spending, but I kind of don't."
Last year, OpenAI reportedly spent $520 million on ChatGPT, with a huge chunk going to the technology's high electricity and cooling water demands.
This is a developing story, we'll keep you posted once we get more details about OpenAI's Strawberry project.
