OpenAI’s GPT-4.5, codenamed “Orion”, is slated for release in the coming weeks. This model is expected to be the final iteration before OpenAI transitions to chain-of-thought models, which aim to enhance AI’s reasoning capabilities.
While specific performance metrics remain under wraps, internal reports suggest that GPT-4.5 will offer notable improvements over its predecessor, GPT-4. Microsoft, a key partner of OpenAI, is reportedly preparing its server infrastructure to support GPT-4.5, with hosting expected to commence imminently. The Verge
Vastly prolonged memory on the model would be a welcomed upgrade, something I personally struggled lately with OpenAI’s 4o-model while rescuing files from a broken Windows hard drive over a network using Debian and finally reconstructing data from corrupt database tables.
GPT-4.5 and also later this year coming GPT-5 mark a defining moment in AI development, bringing both unprecedented capabilities and strategic dilemmas for Europe. The continent must act decisively – embracing AI to drive productivity and competitiveness while ensuring ethical considerations are met. As the AI revolution accelerates, Europe stands at a crossroads: will it become a global leader in AI regulation and innovation, or will it fall further behind the US and China? The coming months will be crucial in shaping this trajectory.
