We\u2019ve made a ton of progress on the hallucination issue with GPT-4, but we\u2019re not where we need to be,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Altman also addressed the possibility that OpenAI could design and manufacture its own computer chips for training and operating its AI models, rather than using those provided by companies such as Nvidia Corp., which is currently seen as the market leader.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe default path would certainly be not to,\u201d he said, \u201cBut I would never rule it out.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"my-4\">Now read: <a href=\"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/software\/511546-most-popular-programming-languages-with-a-big-tumble-for-java.html\" rel=\"bookmark\">Most popular programming languages \u2014 with a big tumble for Java<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are already a handful of tools that claim to detect images or other content that has been made with AI, but they can be inaccurate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":341034,"featured_media":485581,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_threads_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[2556,85027,85173,35793,45266,83585],"class_list":["post-511752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-software","tag-adobe","tag-adobe-firefly","tag-ai-image-generators","tag-artificial-intelligence-ai","tag-openai","tag-sam-altman"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/511752"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/341034"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=511752"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/511752\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/485581"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=511752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=511752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=511752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
