OpenAI’s text-generating AI chatbot, ChatGPT, has taken the world by storm since its launch in November 2022. The tool, originally designed to boost productivity by assisting with writing essays and code using short text prompts, has become widely popular. More than 92% of Fortune 500 companies are now using ChatGPT.
This growth has propelled OpenAI to become one of the most talked-about companies in recent times. A recent partnership with Apple for their upcoming generative AI offering, Apple Intelligence, has further solidified OpenAI’s position in the AI space.
In 2024, OpenAI released GPT-4o, the new flagship model for ChatGPT. GPT-4o is now the default free model, equipped with voice and vision capabilities. However, after showcasing GPT-4o, OpenAI paused one of its voices, Sky, following allegations that it was mimicking Scarlett Johansson’s voice from the movie “Her.”
OpenAI is currently experiencing internal turmoil, with notable events such as the departure of co-founder and longtime chief scientist Ilya Sutskever as the company dissolved its Superalignment team. Additionally, OpenAI is facing legal challenges from Alden Global Capital-owned newspapers, including The New York Daily News and the Chicago Tribune, for alleged copyright infringement, following a similar lawsuit filed by The New York Times last year.
The timeline of ChatGPT product updates and releases is ongoing, with the latest updates being continuously added throughout the year. If you have any further questions, you can refer to the ChatGPT FAQ for more information.
