OpenAI Introduces GPT-4.5 AI Model in Research Preview, Its ‘Best Model for Chat Yet’
OpenAI has introduced GPT-4.5, its most advanced AI model yet, now available as a research preview to explore its capabilities before a full release. GPT-4.5 enhances understanding, accuracy, and creativity by scaling unsupervised learning, allowing it to recognize patterns more effectively, generate deeper insights, and reduce errors (hallucinations). Conversations with GPT-4.5 feel more natural and intuitive, making it particularly useful for writing, coding, and problem-solving. Trained on Microsoft Azure AI supercomputers, it benefits from improved architecture and optimization, leading to broader knowledge and better reliability. OpenAI continues advancing AI through unsupervised learning (enhancing knowledge and intuition) and reasoning (improving logical thinking and problem-solving). As feedback is gathered, GPT-4.5 represents a significant step toward more reliable and intelligent AI across various applications.
OpenAI’s Sora is now available in the EU, UK
OpenAI has announced that its video generation model, Sora, is now available to users in the European Union, the U.K., Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein, and Iceland. Starting Friday, ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers in these regions can create videos using the model. OpenAI first introduced Sora in February 2024 and made it accessible to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in December, though it was initially unavailable in the EU. This expansion allows more users to explore Sora’s AI-powered video creation capabilities.
Meta plans to release standalone Meta AI app in effort to compete with OpenAI’s ChatGPT
Meta is set to launch a standalone Meta AI app in the second quarter, joining Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, according to sources familiar with the project. This move aligns with CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s goal to position Meta as a leader in AI ahead of competitors like OpenAI and Alphabet. Meta AI, originally launched in September 2023 as a generative AI assistant, was integrated into Meta’s apps in April 2024, replacing the search function in Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. The upcoming app marks a significant step in Meta’s AI expansion.
Alibaba Releases Open-Source Wan 2.1 Suite of AI Video Generation Models, Claimed to Outperform OpenAI’s Sora
Alibaba has launched Wan 2.1, a suite of open-source AI video generation models, available on Hugging Face for academic and commercial use. The suite includes four models: T2V-1.3B, T2V-14B, I2V-14B-720P, and I2V-14B-480P, supporting text-to-video (T2V) and image-to-video (I2V) generation.
The smallest variant (T2V-1.3B) runs on consumer-grade GPUs with 8.19GB vRAM, generating five-second, 480p videos in four minutes using an Nvidia RTX 4090. While Wan 2.1 models primarily focus on video generation, Alibaba hints at future capabilities like image generation, video-to-audio, and video editing. The models support prompts in Chinese and English.
