According to BlockBeats, during the recent KDDI Summit on September 5, Tadao Nagasaki, CEO of OpenAI's Japan subsidiary, revealed that the new generation model, codenamed 'GPT-Next,' is expected to be 100 times more powerful than the current GPT-4 model. The release of GPT-Next is planned for later this year. The significant performance improvement of the GPT-Next model is attributed to its optimized architecture design and enhanced learning efficiency, rather than merely relying on extensive computational resources.

Nagasaki also disclosed that OpenAI currently has fewer than 2,000 employees worldwide, with approximately half of them dedicated to AI development. OpenAI's major clients include prominent companies such as Apple, Coca-Cola, and biotechnology giant Moderna.
