The AI that sparked tech panic and scared world leaders heads to retirement
Briefly

OpenAI announced the retirement of GPT-4, indicating it will be fully replaced by GPT-4o by April 30, 2025, marking a significant transition for the AI model that had transformed language processing since its launch in March 2023. The retirement showcases GPT-4's unprecedented capabilities, including high scores on the Bar Exam and AP tests, advancing the AI race. Despite its retirement from ChatGPT, GPT-4 will remain available via API for developers. The development for GPT-4 involved extensive resources, costing over $100 million to train and utilizing more than 20,000 GPUs.
One of the most influential—and by some counts, notorious—AI models yet released will soon fade into history. OpenAI announced on April 10 that GPT-4 will be "fully replaced" by GPT-4o in ChatGPT at the end of April, bringing a public-facing end to the model that accelerated a global AI race when it launched in March 2023.
