On September 5th, according to a report by Jin Ten, at the recent KDDI Summit, Tadao Nagasaki, CEO of OpenAI's Japanese subsidiary, revealed that the performance of OpenAI's new generation model, codenamed "GPT-Next", is expected to be 100 times more powerful than the existing GPT-4 model and is scheduled to be released later this year. The improved performance of the GPT-Next model is attributed to its optimized architecture design and improved learning efficiency, rather than relying solely on huge computing resources. He also revealed that OpenAI currently has less than 2,000 employees worldwide, of which about half are dedicated to AI development. OpenAI's main customers include Apple, Coca-Cola and biotech giant Modena.
