Listen to the Podcast:
When Microsoft released the new AI-enabled Bing, which was built on top of OpenAI’s GPT models, neither company disclosed which version of GPT was used, except to note that it was a next-generation version of the model that powered ChatGPT.
GPT-4, a significant enhancement to GPT-3.5, was announced today by OpenAI. It turns out that Bing was using it the whole time.
“We are pleased to confirm that the new Bing runs on GPT-4, which we have adapted for search,” Yusuf Mehdi, corporate vice president and chief consumer marketing officer at Microsoft, said in today’s statement. “You’ve already seen a previous version of this strong model if you’ve used the new Bing preview in the last five weeks.”
There were plenty of reports that the new Bing was already running GPT-4, so it’s not a huge surprise, but it’s interesting to see that Microsoft trusted the model enough to stake its reputation on it and pay the costs. for this more complex model.
Good news, we’ve increased our turn limits to 15/150. It also confirms that the next generation model that Bing uses in Prometheus is indeed the OpenAI GPT-4 that was just announced today. Congratulations to the @OpenAI equipment. https://t.co/WTVlVCVOyw pic.twitter.com/VA4Z1SDiEG

It’s worth mentioning that Microsoft is using a combination of GPT-4 and its own Prometheus model to provide more up-to-date information and set up barriers around the OpenAI model.
Despite a rocky start (due in part to the new Bing’s propensity for hallucinations), Microsoft quickly reprized the new Bing in recent weeks, and after placing a number of restrictions on it early on, the corporation is now opening up again. Microsoft has increased the number of possible turns in a conversation to 15 and also allows users to have up to 150 conversations each day.
So, if you want to try the new GPT-4 model, just go to Bing (or, if you haven’t already, sign up for the waiting list).
Bing, by the way, goes on to state that it doesn’t support GPT-4. Someone needs to let Sydney know she’s no longer under the NDA.
Today has been a great day for AI news. In addition to Bing’s confirmation and the official introduction of GPT-4, Google highlighted a host of AI capabilities coming to Gmail, Docs and other services, as well as the availability of its own AI language model, PaLM. However, we’re still waiting for Bard, Google’s own AI-powered chatbot, to become more widely available.
