"Understanding the Stealth Release of GPT 4.5"

GPT 4.5 likely stealth released:

  • Speculation on GPT 4.5 release based on leaked screenshots
  • Evidence of stealth release from Twitter user Ethan McK

GPT 4.5 saw improvements in performance after being unreliable for weeks:

  • Community noticed a decline in GPT 4's performance
  • Notable improvements observed in speed and answer quality

GPT 4.5 release confusion:

  • Speculations about GPT 4.5 release in September based on evidence and tweets
  • OpenAI might be stealthily split testing the upgraded version among users

OpenAI released GPT 4.5 turbo model with improved capabilities.:

  • Users reported an increase in the model's behavior, suggesting an update.
  • Constraints on the system due to compute limitations led to changes in model behavior.

GPT 4.5 is limited due to demanding compute and updates affect performance:

  • Stanford study evaluates GPT 3.5 and GPT 4 performance on diverse tasks
  • Performance of GPT 4 varied compared to its initial release, indicating potential business incentives

OpenAI likely stealth updated GPT 4 and GPT 3.5 without official announcements.:

  • Huge discrepancy in abilities of GPT 4 observed from March 2023 to June 2023.
  • Research paper confirms the significant drop in performance from 97% to 23.4% without any major downgrades reported.

Open AI is being vague about the GPT 4.5 release:

  • Futurist Flower mentioned that GPT 4 Turbo runs on low temperature causing hallucinations, explaining mass hallucinations
  • Open AI conducts secret pre-release A/B testing, with some having access to GPT 4.5 while others don't

OpenAI may have quietly released GPT 4.5 as a stealth update.:

  • Testing by asking questions to GPT may reveal the updated system/API it is calling on.
  • Access to GPT 4.5 is currently not available through any official settings or announcements.
