What is GPT-4 Turbo with Vision?
GPT-4 Turbo with Vision is an upgraded version of OpenAI's existing GPT-4 model, with the addition of the ability to process images directly in dialog.
This means that users can now upload images and AI will generate answers based on the content of the image, thus extending the interaction from plain text to visual content.
The model supports a variety of image formats including PNG, JPEG, WEBP, and non-animated GIFs with a size limit of 20MB per file.
More in-depth conversations can be had
GPT-4 Turbo supports 128k of context, equivalent to the amount of content in a 300-page book, which is an eight-fold increase over the previous version, GPT-3.5 Turbo, and greatly enhances its ability to process information.
In Al's terminology, a Token is a unit of data processed by the model. Increasing the number of Token allows for a broader and more detailed dialog.
This update ensures that AI can more easily handle long conversations and more complex questions.
Limitations of the new version
While the GPT-4 Turbo with Vision is a leap forward in AI capabilities, it has its limitations.
According to OpenAI, it can't properly process medical images (e.g., CT scans), images with non-English or small text, and particularly fancy text or panoramic photos. In addition, this system cannot be used to process CAPTCHAs.
Users can upload files in PNG (.png), JPEG (.jpeg and .jpg), WEBP (.webp), and non-animated GIF (.gif) file formats, with a size limit of 20MB/image.
Practical applications and user access
In addition to parsing images, the GPT-4 Turbo offers other useful applications including website creation, coding assistance and more. These tools are designed to help professionals and hobbyists content creation, solve programming problems, and inspire creativity.
A subscription to ChatGPT Plus provides access to these premium features for around $20/month. A subscription not only unlocks new image processing features, but also allows users to fully utilize the full potential of the AI upgrade in conversational skills.
