OpenAI chief seeks new Microsoft funds to build ‘superintelligence’
OpenAI plans to secure further financial backing from its biggest investor Microsoft as the ChatGPT maker’s chief executive Sam Altman pushes ahead with his vision to create artificial general intelligence — computer software as intelligent as humans.
Asked if Microsoft would keep investing further, Altman said: “I’d hope so.” He added: “There’s a long way to go, and a lot of compute to build out between here and AGI . . . training expenses are just huge.”
In the latest sign of how OpenAI intends to build a business model on top of ChatGPT, the company announced a suite of new tools… The tools include custom versions of ChatGPT that can be adapted and tailored for specific applications, and a GPT Store, or a marketplace of the best apps. The eventual aim will be to split revenues with the most popular GPT creators, in a business model similar to Apple’s App Store.
“Right now, people [say] ‘you have this research lab, you have this API [software], you have the partnership with Microsoft, you have this ChatGPT thing, now there is a GPT store’. But those aren’t really our products,” Altman said. “Those are channels into our one single product, which is intelligence, magic intelligence in the sky. I think that’s what we’re about.”
Pointing to the launch of GPTs, he said OpenAI was working to build more autonomous agents that can perform tasks and actions, such as executing code, making payments, sending emails or filing claims. “We will make these agents more and more powerful . . . and the actions will get more and more complex from here,” he said. “The amount of business value that will come from being able to do that in every category, I think, is pretty good.”
While GPT-5 is likely to be more sophisticated than its predecessors, Altman said it was technically hard to predict exactly what new capabilities and skills the model might have….

Bill Gates does not expect GPT-5 to be much better than GPT-4
In an interview with the German business newspaper Handelsblatt, Microsoft founder Bill Gates says there are many reasons to believe that GPT technology has reached a plateau.
There are "many good people" working at OpenAI who are convinced that GPT-5 will be significantly better than GPT-4, including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Gates says. But he believes that current generative AI has reached a ceiling - though he admits he could be wrong.
As a benchmark for what he sees as a major quality improvement, he cited the big jump in quality from GPT-2 to GPT-4, which he described as "incredible."
Still, Gates sees great potential in today's AI systems, especially if high development costs and error rates can be reduced and reliability improved. He believes this can be achieved in the next two to five years, making generative AI viable for medical applications such as drug development or health advice.
Another important milestone, according to Gates, is the development of understandable AI. "It's weird, we know the algorithm, but we don't really know how it works," says Gates. He believes this task will be fully solved in "the next decade.”
