If you don’t have access to GPT-4o already, you will soon.
So let’s look at what makes this new AI model different from what’s come before.
It can understand much more nuance, produce more accurate results, and is significantly less prone toAI hallucinations.

As long as you’re aware that it’s much more likely to give you incorrect information.
GPT-4 Turbo had been the flagship model until the arrival of GPT-4o.
It’s broadly just as smart as GPT-4 Turbo, so overall this advancement is more about efficiency.
However, there are some obvious and not so obvious advancements that go beyond simply being faster and cheaper.
What Can GPT-4o Do?
Well, so could GPT-4 Turbo, but this time it’s different under the hood.
OpenAI says that it’s trained a single neural net on all modalities at once.
With GPT-4o it’s all one model, which has numerous knock-on effects on performance and abilities.
It can even sing!
In other words, OpenAI has given GPT-4o some measure ofaffective computingability.
The same sort of efficiency and unification applies to text and images, as well as video.
Inone demoGPT-4o is shown having a real-time conversation with a human being with live video and audio.
This will likely make it more useful for tasks like helping you write a novel, as one example.
How Much Does GPT-4o Cost?
That said, using GPT-4o is dead simple.
At which point, you’ll be dropped back to version 3.5 until you have more requests available.
Things might work slightly differently when the feature rolls out to free users.
If you’re using the mobile app, simply tap the three dots and choose the model from there.
Then use ChatGPT as you usually would!
