Open AI is planning more features for developers

Open AI is holding its first developer conference in November and Reuters’ report say that OpenAI plans to roll out major updates soon in order to attract more developers.

What’s going on here?

OpenAI wants to make its AI models cheaper and easier for developers to build applications with.

What does this mean?

First, OpenAI could add memory storage capabilities to reduce computing costs for developers (with estimates that this could cut expenses by up to 20 times). Big deal!

Second, the new GPT-4V is likely to be offered in the API. That’ll open up a huge number of new use cases, attracting developers to build on it. allow developers to build apps that can analyze images and describe them. This unlocks many potential use cases beyond just text generation.

Why should I care?

OpenAI has the most developer-friendly interface to work with. They recently improved the UI for their cookbook, launched a fine-tuning dashboard and some other minor updates in a similar direction. The se updates from OpenAI hint that devs are still one of their key focus areas (despite the consumer success of ChatGPT).
