From GPT-1 to GPT-4.5: seven years of rapid change

From GPT-1 to GPT-4.5: from 😂 to WOW!

In just 7 years, Ai went from a joke to mind-blowing.

What about the next 7 years?

‍

2018 - GPT-1: Couldn't even answer a simple question.

2019 - GPT-2: Responses were messy, almost gibberish.

2023 - GPT-3.5: The real breakthrough.

2023 - GPT-4: Set the standard for Ai chatbots.

2024 - GPT-4.5: even smarter, better, almost human.

‍

All of this in just 7 years.

‍

Imagine where we’ll be by 2032 🤯

‍

What do you think the next 7 years will bring?

GPT-1 repeats the question 'What was the first language?' instead of giving a coherent answer.

GPT-3.5 says the first language is unknown but identifies Sumerian cuneiform as the earliest known writing.
GPT-4 explains why the first spoken language cannot be identified and mentions Proto-Indo-European.
GPT-4.5 explains that language emerged gradually, likely in Africa, so no single first language is known.
