Part 2/9:
According to a recent article from Futurism, the once-anticipated GPT-4.5, touted as OpenAI's most extensive and knowledgeable model, has not lived up to the lofty idea of being a frontier model. The marketing strategy seemed conflicted—on one hand, it boasted superior knowledge and size, while on the other, it downplayed its performance capabilities compared to other leading models. This ambiguity has led to a lukewarm reception from the public and experts, with AI critic Gary Marcus going so far as to label the model a "nothing burger" and suggesting it lacks substance compared to OpenAI's earlier breakthroughs like ChatGPT and GPT-4.
