GPT-4o listens, understands, and responds with astonishing accuracy. Its enhanced audio processing capabilities enable it to decipher spoken language with ease, ensuring clear and effective communication in every interaction.

Model capabilities

Say goodbye to lengthy delays and hello to seamless conversation with GPT-4o Voice Mode! Prior to GPT-4o, interacting with ChapGPT via Voice Mode meant enduring latencies of 2.8 seconds(with GPT-3.5) and 5.4 seconds (with GPT-4) on average. This was due to a pipeline of three separate models:one for transcribing audio to text, another for processing text with GPT-3.5 or GPT_4, and a third for converting the text back to audio. Unfortunately, this approach resulted in significant information loss. GPT-4 couldn’t directly perceive tone, handle multiple speakers,or discern background noises. Moreover, it couldn’t convey laughter, singing, or emotions effectively.

Enter GPT-4o Voice Mode- a game-changer in human-computer interaction. We’ve trained a single, unified model end-to-end across text, vision, and audio. This means that all inputs and outputs are processed by the same neural network, eliminating the need for cumbersome pipelines and preserving the richness of communication. With GPT-4o Voice Mode, you’ll experience near-instantaneous responses and a more immersive conversational experience.

While GPT-4o represents a monumental leap forward, we’re just scratching the surface of its capabilities. We’re excited to explore its full potential and uncover its limitations as we continue on this journey of innovation.

Language tokenization

Tokenization is a process in natural language processing (NLP) where text is divided into individual tokens, usually words or subwords, for further analysis. The choice of languages for tokenization plays a crucial role in ensuring that the tokenizer can effectively handle a wide range of linguistic diversity. Here are 20 languages chosen as representative of the new tokenizer’s compression across different language families:

1. English
2. Spanish
3. French
4. German
5. Chinese (Simplified)
6. Chinese (Traditional)
7. Arabic
8. Russian
9. Hindi
10. Japanese
11. Portuguese
12. Korean
13. Italian
14. Turkish
15. Dutch
16. Swedish
17. Polish
18. Indonesian
19. Hebrew
20. Thai

These languages represent a diverse range of language families, including Indo-European, Sino-Tibetan, Afro-Asiatic, Altaic, Dravidian, and more. By including languages from various language families, the tokenizer can efficiently compress linguistic information and ensure robust performance across different linguistic contexts.

🛡️ Ensuring Safety and Acknowledging Limitations: GPT-4o’s Commitment to Responsible AI 🛡️

At GPT-4o, safety is not just a priority; it’s ingrained into the fabric of our design philosophy. Through meticulous planning and implementation, we’ve integrated safety measures across all modalities, employing techniques such as data filtering and post-training refinement to mitigate potential risks. In particular, our voice outputs are subject to additional guardrails to ensure safe and secure interactions.

To evaluate GPT-4o’s preparedness, we’ve rigorously assessed its performance using our comprehensive Preparedness Framework and adhered to our voluntary commitments. Across cybersecurity, CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear), persuasion, and model autonomy, GPT-4o consistently scores below Medium risk. Our evaluations involve a combination of automated tests and human assessments conducted throughout the model’s development, encompassing both pre- and post-safety-mitigation iterations.

Furthermore, external red-teaming exercises involving over 70 experts have provided invaluable insights into potential risks associated with the introduction of new modalities. These learnings have informed the ongoing refinement of our safety interventions, ensuring that interacting with GPT-4o remains as safe as possible.

However, we acknowledge that GPT-4o’s audio modalities present unique challenges. While text and image inputs and outputs are publicly available, we’re actively working to address technical infrastructure, usability, and safety considerations for other modalities, such as audio. Initially, audio outputs will be limited to preset voices and will adhere to existing safety policies.

Despite our efforts, GPT-4o, like any model, has its limitations. Across all modalities, we’ve identified several areas where improvements are needed. We’re committed to addressing these limitations through ongoing testing, iteration, and feedback from our community.

We invite feedback to help identify areas where GPT-4 Turbo may still outperform GPT-4o, as this input is invaluable in our mission to continually enhance the model’s capabilities and safety.
