OPENAI has released GPT-4 and it can already compete against humans in many impressive tasks.
Dubbed the “latest milestone in OpenAI’s effort in scaling up deep learning,” GPT-4 is a large multimodal model.

This means it accepts both image and text inputs to emit text outputs – unlike ChatGPT 3, OpenAI’s earlier learning model application.
Essentially, when shown a photo of something, GPT-4 can describe the scene and even predict what could happen next.
For example, if a user inputs a photo of a child holding a slingshot in front of a cup, GPT-4 could assume that the child will shoot the slingshot, tipping the cup over.
Experts are calling the advancement a huge leap forward for AI learning and development.
OpenAI said that while GPT-4 is “less capable than humans in many real-world scenarios,” it still exhibits “human-level performance on various professional and academic benchmarks.”
Below is a round-up of some of the amazing tasks GPT-4 has completed just days after being released, as shared by users online.
Create drugs
Dan Shipper, the CEO of Every, tweeted on Tuesday that GPT-4 can discover new drugs.
Shipper said if users input a currently available drug, GPT-4 can ” find compounds with similar properties,” and “modify them to make sure they’re not patented.”

It can also “purchase them from a supplier (even including sending an email with a purchase order).”
Generate games
Pietro Schirano shared on Twitter that he was able to re-create the classic computer game Pong in under 60 seconds.
He further called GPT-4 “an incredible and transformative technology.”
Another user revealed they re-created the game of Connect Four, while others created their own games.
Take the Bar exam
The newly-developed platform can pass “basically every exam,” per Ethan Mollick, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business.
Mollick tweeted that GPT-4 passes the Bar Exam in the 90th percentile, the LSAT in the 88th percentile, and the GRE Quantitative: in the 80th percentile.
These are just a few exams from a longer list that the learning model can pass with flying colors.
Code Chrome extensions
The powerful tool can even code and create Google Chrome extensions, YouTube host Jake Browatzke said on Twitter.
“With GPT-4’s help and no previous coding experience, I just made my first Google Chrome extension in a few hours,” Browatzke said.
“GPT-4 walked me step by step thru the entire creation process, writing the code and fixing all errors that came up,” he added.
Browatzke’s simple extension translates the text of any webpage into “Pirate Speak.”
One-click lawsuits
Joshua Browder, the CEO of DoNotPay – which calls itself the world’s first robot lawyer – is working with GPT-4 to generate “one-click lawsuits.”
Browder said in a tweet that the initiative will help users sue robocallers for $1,500.
“Imagine receiving a call, clicking a button, the call is transcribed and a 1,000-word lawsuit is generated,” Browder said.
“GPT-3.5 was not good enough, but GPT-4 handles the job extremely well,” Browder added.
