Open AI JUST RELEASED GPT 4.5 (GPT 4.5 Release Explained)

LARRUZ argues OpenAI quietly released GPT-4.5 based on leaked screenshots, researcher tweets about faster responses, and users reporting an API called GPT-4.5 Turbo. A Stanford study showed the model changed between March and June 2023, suggesting OpenAI tests upgrades without announcement.

There has been some recent speculation with as to did GPT 4.5 actually get released today? And I think it did in a stealth rollout. And I'm going to explain to you exactly what that means and why GPT 4.5 was very, very likely released and why they most likely won't admit to this for several reasons. So what you're seeing on screen right now was yesterday's leaks. If you didn't check out the video, just check it out, it just covers the entire leaks and it basically talks about this screenshot which shows GPT 4.5. So GPT4.5.64k and GPT4.5 with audio and speech. Now I do think that this screenshot is most likely false because of several reasons in the previous video that I did state, because if this screenshot was real, then we likely would have got a release. But there was something released yesterday which I'll talk about in another video where essentially they're talking about Super Alignment. This video is going to be covering GPT 4.5 because a lot of people are divided on whether or not it's true. And I'm going to show you guys why it is most likely true that GPT 4.5 is. They'd likely get a stealth release. And a stealth release is basically a release of the model that they don't explicitly say. They're just kind of showing you a beta test. So behind the scenes they won't change the name of GPT4, they'll upgrade it to GPT 4.5 and see how users interact with it, see the kind of feedback they get. And then of course from there they can do some kind of release. So essentially the reason I know something did change last night was because when I was browsing Twitter and just browsing the AI space as I do every single day, I. I saw this tweet. And this tweet was before that there were any tweets on the interwebs about GPT 4.5 being self released. So this guy, Ethan Mollick, he tweets a lot about AI and he does a lot of different tests between AI systems, which is why I follow this account, because it shows us a lot of times some of the small things that we do miss in terms of performance because a lot of the times there are small performances, small changes from time to time that you might miss. So what he did was he tweeted this and he said ChatGPT4 suddenly got very good again for some reason, after being unreliable and a little dull for this was something that many people in the ChatGPT community had noticed that GPT4 wasn't as good. And I'm going to just provide information for that because just saying that something isn't as good, you do need research to back up that claim. But he does say, this might be my favorite interaction. I asked it to create files for me. It insisted it could not. I told it to try. It did. And then look at the top code comment and you can see it absolutely managed to do that. Now, what was also interesting was he tweeted this as well. Really, really good and really, really fast. Hmm. It's almost like working with a more capable system night and day for both speed and answer quality. Now, this is, like I said, one of the accounts that I do take seriously on Twitter because this person does a lot, a lot of testing. So when you use a model every single day, you're really going to understand the differences and the nuances in different systems. Then, of course, what was also interesting, okay, about this was, you know, you have some people that are saying GPT 4.5 wasn't released because previously, okay, one of the community members actually tweeted @sama and said, Is the GPT 4.5 leak legit or no? And Sam Altman himself stated that no. So you might be thinking, no way. There's no way they released it's GPT 4.5. As Sam Altman said, it's legit or not. But remember this question that he's asking him, is the GPT 4.5 leak legit or not? And of course he's not actually answering the question whether or not are you denying the pricing screen share or that GPT 4.5 is coming in December? People are confused. And that is the key difference here. He's saying that the screenshot is probably fake, but he's not denying the fact that GPT 4.5 could be released in September. And now here's the thing about why GPT 4.5, and some of the more evidence that we do have is that we do have this tweet right here. So so many people have actually been asking ChatGPT, which version are you currently using? And some people, okay, and I'm not on this side, some people are stating that it's a mass hallucination. But I'm going to explain to you why it very likely isn't. And I'm going to show you guys in a moment why it very likely isn't mass hallucination and why they likely did this so some people are saying that numerous ChatGPT plus users are getting this response, mass hallucination or something is cooking. And people essentially ask, ChatGPT, the model you're answering is known as ChatGPT, yada, yada yada. And then people ask specifically, what is it named in the API? And it says, in the OpenAI API, the model answering your query is referred to as the GPT 4.5 Turbo. This is a variant of the GPT 4 model, optimized for more efficient and rapid interactions. I don't know what that word is because it's blanked out. But yeah, so many people thinking that, okay, this is of course mass hallucination, but it isn't okay, because you actually need to test this yourself. What they are doing and what I'm pretty sure OpenAI is doing, is split testing it between the user base. Maybe they've allocated 25% to 50% of the users on GPT4's plan to an upgraded version just to test it stealthily, because they actually did this with the previous version of ChatGPT Pro. They upgraded some people to GPT4 and didn't say anything. And then of course, they rolled out GPT4. So what was interesting about this was that I actually did test this myself and I said, precisely, what's the name called in the API? And you can see the model serving this conversation is known as GPT 40304. So that's GPT4. But we have to understand is that with other people ask the same question, they are actually getting GPT 4.5 Turbo. So you want to think about like this. Why would it Hallucinate GPT 4.5 Turbo than anything else? I'm pretty sure that if it was going to hallucinate, it likely would hallucinate to GPT5 if it was going to be anything. And I'm likely sure that it wouldn't be just, you know, randomly hallucinating this, especially after many users had reported an increase. And of course there were many leaks around this. Now, what is also interesting is you might be thinking, okay, OpenAI didn't officially say anything, so why is everyone going crazy because they just asked ChatGPT a simple question? There's no way that asking ChatGPT a question about itself can confirm or deny whether the software was updated. Okay, that could be a very good point. But let me show you guys some research papers that were conducted earlier this year in the summer that prove that OpenAI deliberately changed the model's behavior due to I'm pretty sure it's due to just constraints on the system because as you know, GPT4 is a very demanding system and it's a very capable system. And of course they don't actually have the compute to actually serve all the users and demands that they're getting. So we know that frequently even now when you use GPT4, what is one of the things that you see when you log in? You see that this is limited to 40 messages every three hours. Okay? And on some systems, you know, you just have, you know, previously when it was out it was only like 25 messages every three hours. And the only reason they put that limit in is because they just don't have enough compute to serve everyone because it's a really capable model. And remember they Gemini, which we talked about. The reason they haven't released Gemini yet and the reason they didn't actually release AlphaCode 2 was because it's way too demanding. These really really smart, capable models are really really demanding on compute. So that's why they have to limit how much people can access them because they're just so demanding in terms of compute and they're really really, really expensive to run. That's why they limit the number of use. So you can see that this paper here was called how is ChatGPT's behavior changing over time? This was one conducted by Stanford and of course essentially what they said here is however, GPT 3.5 and GPT 4 are the most used LLMs worldwide and essentially how and when these models are updated over time is opaque. Here we evaluate the March 2023 and June 2023 versions of GPT 3.5 and GPT 4 on several diverse tasks. Math problems, sensitive questions, opinion surveys, multi hop knowledge intensive questions, generating code, U.S. medical license tests and visual reasoning. We find that the performance of the behavior of both GPT 3.5 and GPT 4 can vary greatly over time. For example, GPT4 March 2023 was reasonable at identifying prime versus composite numbers. But GPT June 2023 was poor on these same questions. And essentially the reason that I know that this is definitely true is because if you were one of the people that were lucky enough to access GPT4 on release date, it was absolutely insane. I remember how smart this AI system was and just how good it is. And now GPT4 doesn't seem as good as that initial system. And to be honest guys, there is incentive for them to dumb down the system a little bit because at the end of the day you have to understand that it is a business and they don't want to just drain all of their resources serving all of the customers for a very, very advanced systems where they can simply instead have the advanced system better reserved for better questions. So for example, take a look at some of their graphs right here. You can see that GPT4 was stealth updated. And the reason I'm showing you guys this research paper is because if they were able to stealth update GPT4 and GPT 3.5 without officially saying that, look, we've updated GPT4 and GPT 3 point 5, that means that they very likely have done this again. Which is why many people are getting the sense that GPT 4.5 was self released. You can see here that from March 2023 to June 2023 and from March 2023 to June 2023 in both ChatGPT and GPT 4, we can see that mainly in GPT 4 there was a huge discrepancy in terms of what was done in terms of the abilities of GPT4. So we know that it is possible for OpenAI to do this. And in fact they have done this before for because of course you can see the response right here. 97 to 23.4% is definitely something incredible. And remember, this isn't just a hunch or someone saying this. This is a fully done research paper where they've interviewed and assessed the model in terms of its capabilities and the model isn't going to jump from 97 to 23.4% without any kind of major downgrade in its services. And this is something that was reported worldwide and I can confirm this too. So overall, I don't think that this is real right here because I don't know if OpenAI is working on 3D. They've never really stated anything about 3D. I mean, they might be working on vision and video, which they have, and that actually makes sense. But I do believe that what ChatGPT and what OpenAI has done is I do believe they decided not to release 4.5 mainly because they wanted to focus on Super Alignment. And number two, because if, for example, leakers like Futurist Flower and Jimmy Apples are consistently correct in their predictions, it does give them more credence and it does give them a little bit more power. And in terms of what they say, because now people are going to be looking to the leakers instead of OpenAI. So I'm pretty sure that OpenAI is just going to decline to answer and say that any of these things are real. Because it doesn't really make sense. There's no advantage to stating that yes, the leaks are real because then all the leakers just get, I guess you could say more press and I'm pretty sure OpenAI wants to be a bit more vague, but this was something treated by Futurist Flower. He said that GPT4 Turbo runs on a very low temperature. Making hallucinations is highly reproducible. This explains mass hallucination in General. How would GPT4 know its current version without reading about it in system messages, which currently doesn't say anything about a 4.5 release. At release we had to precisely tell it that it is GPT4, not GPT3. This is because large parts of reinforcement learning with human feedback data set were used for GPT4 as well. And however, if you use a whole new reinforcement learning with human feedback approach, you might bake the GPT4.5 identity in it and then you wouldn't need to tell it what it is anymore. And it's not uncommon practice for OpenAI to do secret pre release a B testing and and they did the exact same with GPT4 Turbo. People got access weeks before it was announced or even rumored. So what we have here is, you know, like, like I said, this is some more information and this is something that I do agree with. You know GPT4 did get a pre release, it was a B tested. I'm not sure why they do it. Maybe they want to have some feedback, maybe they want to have a little bit more red teaming just from the public. But I'm guessing that what we have now is a situation where GPT 4.5 is technically released, I guess you could say half and half. I currently don't have access to it. Some people do have access to it, some people don't. I'm not sure how it's going to work. I do know that the US usually does get these AI systems earlier than us, but I do know also that it is possible for OpenAI to actually do this. Likewise, they have done it before. So if you do want to test this out for yourself, you do just want to ask ChatGPT this question and then whichever response it gives you, that is going to be likely the response and it's meaning that that is the system API that the model is calling on. So overall, like I don't think that this screenshot right here is real. It will be interesting to see if they do update to GPT 4.5 in the future. Will it be a December release? Maybe not. Maybe they're going to wait until January to take away some of the spotlight from Gemini Ultra's January release. But either way, we do know that there was a subtle update to GPT4's performance boost, and I'm pretty sure that it was 4.5 and I'm pretty sure that they are split testing this right now. So it will be interesting to see how the community does sort of react to this released early, because right now the community is a little bit divided. But this is definitely something that OpenAI does does do. And of course the research paper does show us that they do update these models behind the scenes. If you are thinking about how do I access this piece of software, how on earth do I access GPT 4.5, understand it is, like I said, a stealth release, which means there is no setting that you can go ahead and change to, you know, activate GPT 4.5 at the moment. You just have to wait and see if you have it and just play around with the software until they do officially release GPT 4.5. Because right now, like I said, OpenAI does have the software, but until they officially state that no, we didn't release it, or until we officially get an update from OpenAI Leasing out, then you're just going to have to hope that you are part of the stealth update where they have released GPT 4.5 to you.
