OpenAI is set to launch a new LLM model called gpt-mini, which is designed for edge devices or local execution, similar to Google Gemini Nano. This development comes amid a broader roadmap outlined by OpenAI to achieve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) through a five-step process. The steps involve progressing from conversational AI to autonomous organizations, with the current focus being on reaching level 2, which serves as a foundation for more advanced AI capabilities. The upcoming week, starting July 15, is expected to see extensive testing of four new models, including gpt-mini and Google's Eureka. Additionally, OpenAI has reportedly released a new DALL-E model in ChatGPT, enhancing its text generation capabilities. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has been a key figure in these advancements.
