OpenAI’s GPT Gains the Ability to Hear and See
Not only did OpenAI not heed the letter’s plea to pause development, it actually moved forward to equip its once text-based GPT model with the ability to hear and see. In September the company announced its model would soon have speech-to-text and text-to-speech synthesization capabilities and could recognize an image presented to it. The company released a video showing image recognition in action where a user submitted a photo of a bicycle and asked the AI to help them lower the seat.
