After much speculation, OpenAI officially confirms it’s working on GPT-5

After filing an application for trademarking the name back in August, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman finally confirmed that the company is actively thinking about how to build GPT-5, the next version of the wildly popular GPT-4 model that powers many of today’s top AI applications, including ChatGPT.

While no details were shared on technical specs or timelines, Altman said that GPT-5 will require new data, which will come from public data sets and propriety data from companies. He also added that the company will need more funds from its leading partner Microsoft to build ‘superintelligence.’

Meteorologists and weathermen may soon have to add themselves to the long list of professionals who have to worry about AI replacing their jobs.

A new peer-reviewed research article from scientists at Google claims that their AI-powered weather forecaster beat Europe’s leading weather center by forecasting weather events correctly 90% of the time.

The scientists said that their forecaster can predict hundreds of weather variables over 10 days in under one minute. They also claimed that it performed better on severe weather prediction, which includes tropical cyclones tracking, atmospheric rivers, and extreme temperatures.
