OpenAI Unveils GPT-4.5
Sam Altman has officially introduced GPT-4.5, calling it the first AI model that feels truly human in its interactions. But there’s a catch—not everyone will get access right away.
The Pros: AI That Feels Real
Altman describes moments where GPT-4.5’s responses were so thoughtful that they left him stunned. This suggests a shift in AI’s capabilities, moving beyond predictive text and into the realm of intuitive conversation.
The Cons: GPU Shortages Delay Rollout
OpenAI originally planned a simultaneous launch for Plus and Pro users, but due to rapid growth and GPU limitations, Plus users will have to wait. However, Altman promises an influx of GPUs in the coming weeks.
What’s Different About GPT-4.5?
Unlike its predecessors, this model isn’t designed to dominate benchmarks. Instead, it introduces a kind of intelligence that Altman describes as “magical.” It might not outscore previous models, but it feels more natural and engaging.
OpenAI’s Future Plans
With demand for AI skyrocketing, OpenAI is scaling up its infrastructure. More GPUs are on the way, and the rollout will soon expand to more users. It’s a sign that AI is evolving—and people are eager to see where it goes next.
