🚀 Musk launches “Vision” Grok to rival ChatGPT-4
Our Report: Following the release of Grok-1.5 LLM (Large Language Model) last month, Musk’s AI company—xAI—has launched Grok-1.5 Vision (Grok-1.5V), an AI chatbot that can process text and visual information (which the original Grok-1.5, couldn't do).
🔑 Key Points:
Grok-1.5V reportedly performed better than its rivals—including GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini Pro—in RealWorldQA benchmark tests that measure real-world understanding.
It can process visual information—including documents, diagrams, screenshots, and photographs—translating diagrams into code and drawings into stories.
Grok-1.5V isn’t available yet, but it is “coming soon” to early testers and existing Grok users, as they improve its capabilities to process images, audio, and video.
🤨 Why you should care: Musk wants Grok-1.5V to write tweets for X (formerly Twitter) Premium users, despite reports that Grok has recently created and promoted dangerous fake stories, raising concerns among its developers.

⬆️ Big upgrade for ChatGPT users
OpenAI has announced that paying ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise subscribers will now have access to its upgraded and improved ChatGPT-4 Turbo model.
The model improves ChatGPT’s writing, math, logical reasoning, and code generation. It also helps ChatGPT understand longer prompts and delivers more conversational responses.
It also offers more recent responses, as it’s been trained on information up to December 2023 (compared to the previous version, which was trained on data until April 2023).

Meta AI features on WhatsApp and Instagram are only available to a select group of users, with Meta stating that they’re “testing them publicly”
These new features follow Meta's announcement during Meta Connect in February 2023 that it would bring AI to WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger.
GLOBAL EXPANSION
🏯 OpenAI takes over Japan

Tadao Nagasaki, who worked at Amazon Web Service (AWS), is the new President of OpenAI Japan and will lead all commercial and market engagement efforts.
OpenAI will give local businesses early access to its custom GPT-4 model, which offers improved performance in translating and summarizing Japanese text and is 3x faster than its predecessor.
