AI:New Chat-GPT can flirt, teach maths
Open AI has launched a new model of its Chat-GPT called the GPT-40 designed to display and identify emotions and can sometimes even be flirtatious in its responses.
“Stop it, you’re making me blush!” the GPT-40 voiced in a charming female American accent in response to a compliment during its live demo on Monday.
GPT-40, unlike previous versions, features a voice prompt that provides instructions on how to solve a mathematical equation written on a piece of paper during its live demo. Previous versions would have simply solved the equation without explaining the how-to-do.
The enhanced GPT-40, which was able to identify emotions of an emoji and translate Italian words to English with ease, would be available to all Chat-GPT users including non-subscribers.
Response rate was also super fast as there were no seconds-delay when it was answering questions, showing it was a sophisticated upgrade of previous models.
The GPT-40, however, showed a slight glitch during its demo, when it suddenly began solving an equation that wasn’t given to it.
OpenAI’s chief technology officer, Mira Murati, said the new model was “magical” and that the company would look into glitches before availing it to users.
