Orion is coming. It will be 100 times more efficient than GPT-4
The Sci-Fi future may be closer than we thought. OpenAI is getting ready to premiere a new model that will outshine all other solutions.
People who haven’t spent the last two years under a rock have certainly heard about ChatGPT and the organization behind it OpenAI. We are talking about pioneers in the world of artificial intelligence. Their solutions are not only used by giants like Microsoftbut they are also the driving force behind the entire AI world.
A breakthrough is coming, and it will happen this year
As reported by The Verge, citing its sources in the company, Americans are getting ready to debut a new model codenamed “Orion”. It is to be 100 times more efficient than those currently available GPT-4whom he will replace. However, it is not known yet whether it is its official name GPT-5.
Compared to previous premieres, Orion will not be immediately available online on ChatGPT.com. Even for paid accounts. A new model will reportedly appear already in Decemberbut it will first be made available to the closest partners so that they can build their services on its basis.
Microsoft declined to comment on the matter. OpenAI first did the same, and Sam Altman named these reports “fake news”. However, the spokesman quickly added that “OpenAI does not plan to release a product called Orion this year, but we will see many other interesting solutions”.
i love being home in the midwest.
the night sky is so beautiful.
excited for the winter constellations to rise soon; they are so great.

A look at the CEO’s social profile on OpenAI sheds additional light on the matter. Altman himself posted a cryptic message there, talking about the sky and winter stars. Using ChatGPT to analyze this statement indicates (with slight hallucinations) that it is about the “ORION” constellation.
The release of the next model comes at a key time for OpenAI, which has just shut down historic $6.6 billion financing round. It is intended to allow for the restructuring of the company as an entity focused not only on the development of AI, but also on generating profit. You can’t forget about farewell to experienced employees like Mira Murati, Bob McGrew or Barret Zoph.
