OpenAI set to launch new AI model 'Orion' by December: Report

San Francisco. ChatGPT maker OpenAI is planning to launch its new AI model 'Orion' in December this year, which can be 100 times more powerful than GPT-4.
According to a report, like last time, OpenAI will not make this model available to everyone through ChatGPT immediately. First, there is a plan to give access to some companies so that they can develop their products and features.
Microsoft is also preparing to bring this model to its cloud platform in November.
OpenAI aims to combine all its language models to create a super AI that can be called "Artificial General Intelligence" (AGI).
The launch of Orion is important for OpenAI, as the company has recently received $6.6 billion in funding and its valuation has reached $157 billion. Also, OpenAI is now shaping up as a profit-making company.
Last month, three of OpenAI's top executives, including CTO Meera Murati, left the company. Of the 13 people who helped found OpenAI in 2015, only three remain at the company. According to the report, Murati is now raising funds for her own AI startup.
The new funding in OpenAI was led by previous investor Thrive Capital. The VC firm invested about $1.3 billion. Microsoft reportedly invested a little less than $1 billion, while Nvidia put in $100 million and SoftBank reportedly invested $500 million.
OpenAI said the new funding will help them remain at the forefront of their AI research, increase computing power, and create new tools for people to solve difficult problems.
