Following feedback from a 25-city global tour, OpenAI says it is increasing its focus on making AI products like ChatGPT and GPT-4 more useful, accessible, and impactful for users and developers worldwide. The tour was led by CEO Sam Altman, who was joined by his co-founders or employees, depending on the location.
Specifically, the company is working on improving performance for languages other than English and ensuring that models perform efficiently in real-world applications, not just “lab benchmarks,” it says. OpenAI also wants to “make it easier for people to guide our models toward responses that reflect a wider variety of individual needs and local cultures and contexts.”
