The Truth Behind GPT 4.5 Turbo Release Rumors

Debunking the Rumors

All right, so at this point OpenAI has thoroughly debunked the rumors of GPT 4.5 turbo release. Multiple employees at OpenAI have confirmed that it is not true. They said no; it’s a very weird and oddly consistent hallucination. Whatever the case is, it would be interesting to know more about what can cause a weird and oddly consistent hallucination.

Training Data Set

References to GPT 4.5 probably aren’t in the training data set if it was done training in April 2023. So either way, it would be really interesting to find out what exactly happened here. Apparently, “Run,” who is an OpenAI employee, mentioned that we need to develop more resistance to the crazy AI hype. Bros, there’s no 4.5. And if there was, it wouldn’t be released silently. And if it was released silently, you wouldn’t have the API string self-lock as 4.5.

Interesting Theories

To be fair, the AI hype Bros are a very important piece of this ecosystem. One interesting theory is that OpenAI is using a fine-tuned version of GPT 4 Turbo in Chad GPT to fix the issue with everyone saying it was lackluster because a lot of people said that it started being lazy, and the outputs weren’t as good. So this theory is that they have fine-tuned it using responses from GPT 4.5 turbo, which they have internally. There’s probably a number of models internally that are used for testing, trying out different stuff.

Data Leak Theory

The synthetic data was probably based on a suite of questions which included self-identification leading to it releasing its model name in the training data. And the new Chad GPT less lazy model is adopting the name via osmotic data leak. By the way, if you didn’t know, this is something that is going on where you have certain models outputting responses or synthetic data to train other models.

Competitor Using OpenAI Tech

Grock Twitter SLXI asked something, and its answer is, “I’m afraid I cannot fulfill that request as it goes against OpenAI’s use case policy. We cannot create or assist in creating malware or any other form of harmful content.” But the point is, Grock, in this case, lets slip that it seems like it was partially trained on OpenAI’s data, probably GPT 4’s outputs. Also, right around this time, B-dance is secretly using OpenAI Tech to build a competitor.

AI Safety Preparedness

OpenAI has acknowledged that the study of Frontier AI risk has fallen short of what is possible. They have adopted the initial version of their preparedness framework, which describes their process to track, evaluate, forecast, and protect against catastrophic risks. They break it down to three time frames and risks: current models, Frontier models, and super-intelligent models.

Google Research Paper

Google research has published a paper on self-improvement for multi-step reasoning LLM agents. This paper deals with how LLM agents answer questions. It involves a decision process where the agent decides whether it needs additional information to answer the question and how it checks the relevance of the answer generated.

Prompt Engineering Guide

OpenAI has published a prompt engineering guide which provides best practices for interacting with AI models. It includes tips on writing clear instructions, using delimiters to indicate distinct parts of the input, specifying the steps required to complete a task, providing examples for better outputs, and specifying the desired length of the output.

That’s it for today. The truth behind GPT 4.5 turbo release rumors is finally revealed. Thank you for reading!
