 GPT4o Released

Translate to Korean

🤯 OpenAI 의 새로운 멀티모달 LLM은 텍스트, 오디오, 비전을 실시간으로 이해하고 생성할 수 있습니다.

💬🗣️👀 지금까지 우리가 알고 있는 것은 다음과 같습니다.

자세히

  • OpenAI는 GPT-4보다 성능이 뛰어난 새로운 GPT-4o 모델을 발표했지만 가장 중요한 것은 모든 사용자에게 무료로 제공된다는 것입니다! 🚀 ⠀
  • 음성 제어 및 화면 공유 기능이 있는 업데이트된 인터페이스 및 PC 응용 프로그램이 도입🎤되었습니다 ⠀
  • 기본적으로 멀티모달: 현재 텍스트, 이미지 및 음성 생성은 하나의 모델🗣️로 수행됩니다. ⠀
  • GPT4💰에 비해 2배 더 빠르고, 50% 더 저렴하고, 5배 더 높은 속도 제한 API를 지원하기 때문에 개발자도 잊지 않습니다 ⠀
  • 음성 모드가 크게 개선되어 이제 모델 생성이 끝날 때까지 기다리지 않고 언제든지 모델 생성을 중단할 수 있습니다. OpenAI는 또한 음성 생성을 실시간 수준으로 끌어올렸으며 가장 중요한 것은 ChatGPT 음성을 실제로 생생하게 만드는 것입니다! 🎶 ⠀
  • 카메라의 이미지를 동시에 공유하고 ChatGPT와 소통할 수 있는 대화형 모드도 있습니다! 💬 ⠀

요약

  • 📥 입력: 텍스트, 텍스트 + 이미지, 텍스트 + 오디오, 텍스트 + 비디오, 오디오(예제 기반)
  • 📤출력: 이미지, 이미지 + 텍스트, 텍스트, 오디오(예제 기반)
  • 🌐 MMLU에서 88.7%; HumanEval에서 90.2%
  • 🎧< 5% WER for Western European languages in transcription
  • 🖼️ 69.1% on MMU; 92.8% on DocVQA
  • ⚡ Up to 50% cheaper (probably due to tokenization improvements) and 2x faster than GPT-4 Turbo
  • 🎤 Near real-time audio with 320ms on average, similar to human conversation
