FTSE 100: Index falls as earnings results weigh; pound below $1.33, Bodycote soars
Investing.com -- In a recent announcement, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated that the company has doubled the rate limits for o3 and o4-mini-high for chatgpt plus subscribers. This move is aimed at ensuring fair resource allocation, preventing misuse, and maintaining service quality for all users.
Rate limits are restrictions on the frequency or volume a user can access an AI API within a certain time period. OpenAI has often introduced these limits to manage the usage of its graphics processing units (GPUs), as the company has struggled to keep up with its growing popularity. Altman had previously mentioned that their GPUs were overused following the release of the image generation feature in ChatGPT.
In addition to the change in rate limits, Altman also revealed that the image generation feature will now be available in the OpenAI API. This updated version of the API has several differences compared to the ChatGPT version. Users can control the moderation sensitivity with the ’moderation’ parameter, and they can also adjust factors such as quality versus generation speed, background, output format, and more.
The CEO concluded his announcement with a note of optimism, stating that more GPUs are on their way, which should help improve the situation. The company continues to make difficult tradeoffs between rate limits, the launch of new features, and latency, but it remains committed to listening to feedback and striving for improvements.
