Recent advances in AI show their profound impact in the fields of programming and education. During a conversation event at the University of Tokyo, OpenAI CEO Ultraman revealed information about their latest internal reasoning model GPT-4.5.
He said the programming capabilities of this model have ranked among the top programmers in the world and are expected to surpass all human programmers by the end of the year. Additionally, Ultraman stressed that AI’s impact on education and career skills has become increasingly significant as technology advances.
Traditional mathematical and programming tasks will no longer be human areas of strength, so it becomes especially important to develop creative thinking and adaptability. He called on people to actively use AI tools to keep up with the pace of technological development.
Ultraman also mentioned the improvement of computing power, pointing out that each model upgrade is accompanied by about 100 times the computing power increase. However, OpenAI's o1 series of inference models brings new computing efficiency, making higher versions of models no longer require such huge computing power. The launch of GPT-4.5 marks a continuous improvement in AI capabilities and efficiency, and indicates a more open source direction in the future.
Regarding the open source plan, Ultraman said that although the specific details are uncertain, OpenAI's goal is to move towards an open research environment and take advantage of the huge contributions brought by open source. He believes that the advancement of AI will bring a leap in productivity to society and promote the all-round development of mankind.
During the event, Ultraman also shared his views on cutting-edge technologies such as brain-computer interfaces and space engineering, demonstrating his strong interest in these fields.
In short, these developments show that AI is changing the way we live and work, bringing endless possibilities to the future.
