GPT-4

With GPT-4, are we one step closer to losing our jobs?

As ChatGPT garners interest on a global scale, the robust model that underpins it, GPT-3.5, is expanding at a remarkable rate. Three months into 2023, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has already surpassed 100 million users, launched an API, and is now publishing GPT-4. GPT-4, known as “OpenAI’s most advanced system,” is accessible on ChatGPT Plus and via a waitlist for its API.

Greg Brockman, President, and Co-Founder of OpenAI showed the tasks this new model is capable of handling during the Livestream session of GPT-4’s launch. The update improves GPT-4’s capabilities on all levels. In a number of academic and professional exams, GPT-4 currently performs better than humans.

GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 both achieved 90th percentile scores on the Uniform Bar Exam, a standardized test taken by attorneys in the US. GPT-4 achieved the 89th percentile in math and 93rd percentile in reading and writing on the SAT, a nationally normed exam for college admissions in the US.

Therefore, the most commonly asked question with a strong model like GPT-4 is if more jobs are going to be replaced. The solution is obvious. The most impacted professions, according to a recent study by Princeton University researchers, are liberal arts teachers, telemarketers, and sociologists.

Because of GPT’s exceptional text-writing skills, media professionals, particularly writers, are becoming increasingly afraid that it will replace them. But keep in mind that GPT is an NLP model and that it predicts the next word based on prior contexts, despite how impressive it may appear.

This means that it can only create output by gathering data and putting together feedback, and cannot produce original ideas (although one could argue that there isn’t any genuine originality).

The ability of GPT-4 to interpret images will continue to dazzle humans if completing tests isn’t impressive enough for AI. GPT-4 will describe every aspect of a meme image to explain why it is funny when asked to do so, much as a nerdy but fascinating friend would.

It can even analyze all the data in a chart and use that to make calculations or analyses. It can analyze it pixel-by-pixel and provide you with the information you need if you ask it to sum up a paper by giving it a screenshot with charts and text.

Some paid consultants and foreign language instructors might also lose their companies. Morgan Stanley is placing GPT-4 in its content collection and generating responses. While Iceland’s government is collaborating with OpenAI to maintain its language, As tech companies remain to lay off workers and increase their investment in AI, even coders are losing their employment.
