Executive Summary AI
  • Sam Altman opens OpenAI's first DevDay in San Francisco by recapping the year since ChatGPT shipped on November 30: GPT-4, voice and vision, DALL·E 3 and ChatGPT Enterprise, with about 2 million developers, over 92% of Fortune 500 companies and about 100 million weekly active users.
  • He announces GPT-4 Turbo with a 128,000-token context, JSON mode, better function calling, reproducible outputs via a seed, retrieval, knowledge up to April 2023, and API access to DALL·E 3, vision, text-to-speech and Whisper v3.
  • Altman adds GPT-4 fine-tuning access, a Custom Models program, doubled rate limits and Copyright Shield, says OpenAI never trains on API or ChatGPT Enterprise data, and states GPT-4 Turbo is 3x cheaper for prompt tokens and 2x for completion tokens.
  • Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella describes reshaping Azure for these training workloads and offers GitHub Copilot Enterprise to every attendee.
  • The keynote introduces GPTs, custom versions of ChatGPT built by conversation and sold through a coming GPT Store with revenue sharing, and the Assistants API with persistent threads, retrieval, Code Interpreter and function calling, demoed by Jessica Shea and Roman.

Brief overview

OpenAI launched GPT-4 Turbo, custom GPTs and the Assistants API as first steps toward AI agents.

  1. GPT-4 Turbo answers the top developer requestsLonger context, more control, fresher knowledge, new modalities, customization and higher rate limits.
  2. Anyone can build a GPT by talkingAltman builds a Startup Mentor GPT on stage by describing it and uploading a lecture.
  3. Agents arrive through gradual deploymentGPTs and the Assistants API are called precursors to agents, released step by step for safety.

Questions this recording answers

5 questions, each answered where it is said
What is new in GPT-4 Turbo?

It supports up to 128,000 tokens of context, about 300 pages of a book, with better accuracy over long context. It adds JSON mode, better function calling, reproducible outputs via a seed, retrieval, world knowledge up to April 2023, and API access to vision, DALL·E 3 and text-to-speech.

What are GPTs?

Tailored versions of ChatGPT for a specific purpose that combine instructions, expanded knowledge and actions. You build one by talking to the GPT Builder, can keep it private, share it by link or make it company-only on Enterprise, and list it in a GPT Store where popular builders get a share of revenue.

What does the Assistants API include?

Persistent threads so developers need not manage long conversation history, built-in retrieval, Code Interpreter as a sandboxed Python interpreter, and improved function calling that can invoke multiple functions at once with guaranteed JSON. Steps are visible in the developer dashboard.

What is Copyright Shield?

OpenAI says it will step in and defend customers and pay the costs incurred if they face legal claims around copyright infringement. It applies to both ChatGPT Enterprise and the API, and Altman adds that OpenAI never trains on data from the API or ChatGPT Enterprise.

How is Microsoft involved with OpenAI?

Satya Nadella says Azure is being reshaped, from power and data centres to accelerators and networks, for OpenAI's large synchronous training workloads. Microsoft builds products like GitHub Copilot on OpenAI APIs and offered GitHub Copilot Enterprise to all attendees.
