OpenAI Delayed GPT-4.5 Launch Due to GPU Shortage

Yesterday, OpenAI presented a new model GPT-4.5, but it is not available to everyone. According to the company's CEO Sam Altman, there is not enough computing power for a full launch.

Fortunately, access to GPT-4.5 for a wide range of users will be provided soon. In his post on X (Twitter), the head of OpenAI said that "tens of thousands of GPUs" should be delivered next week. For now, the capabilities of the new model can be used by subscribers to the Pro version of ChatGPT for $200 per month. Plus owners will get access a little later, when a batch of GPUs arrives.

Recall that GPT-4.5 differs from its predecessors in greater emotionality and improved data verification — the new model makes mistakes 25% less often than GPT-4o. However, it is more focused on everyday tasks.

It also became known that OpenAI is completing work on its own AI chip — they plan to launch its production soon.
