Sam Altman: Facing a computing power bottleneck, the new version of OpenAI may be delayed

ChainCatcher news, OpenAI founder Sam Altman stated that the release of OpenAI's new version may be delayed, currently facing a computing power bottleneck, and services may sometimes slow down.

Previously, Sam Altman mentioned on February 12 that he plans to launch GPT-4.5 and GPT-5 in the coming weeks or months. He also stated yesterday that a "new type of open-source weight language model" with reasoning capabilities will be released in the coming months. An open-source weight language model refers to a model that can be publicly used, downloaded, modified, or deployed. Although it is not as open as a fully open-source model, it represents a significant shift compared to the completely closed GPT-3 and GPT-4. OpenAI partially open-sourced the GPT-2 model in February 2019 and completed full open-sourcing in November of the same year.
