Here is a list of what’s going to be happening:

  • Workshops: Hands-on technical sessions to deepen your skills and explore new possibilities with the OpenAI platform and API tools.
  • Breakout sessions: Discussions on best practices around model customization, evals, steerability, scaling, and a variety of other topics, led by AI experts and community members.
  • Demos: Meet the OpenAI product and engineering teams and see our models and platform in action.

I am interested in hearing your speculation on what model you believe the development team is going to be releasing:

  • GPT-4.5
  • GPT-4
  • Q*
  • Sora

If OpenAI releases another GPT4x model I think I’m going to cry overlapping tears.

I hope they release more powerful toolings to help control & steer all the features they’re releasing, and hopefully hear some news about SoRA.

I’ve been using competitors and the toolsets they offer are what really make it worthwhile. I don’t care for a perfect model that completely transforms content and produces a finished version, I care for an editable format that I can now push and pull different features in and out of.

I’m really excited to see more information about GPT-4o Mini. Such an amazing model.

A mix of both would be nice too.

I totally agree about the toolset and some ChatGPT updates would be appreciated as well.

i was expecting they will hold one in tokyo since they have local office here.

it is really too far away to make any speculation since they can release anything before. but here’s my wish list:

  • update on whisper api (available model is still whisper-1), maybe diarization?
  • update on tts (also still tts-1)
  • release of full modal gpt-4o (voice in - voice out).

Do you mean in the API a bunch of users have started receiving access in ChatGPT.

Yes, these would be good updates but I wonder if they will discontinue the tts model and just replace it with an API gpt-4o-voice model.

yes, in the API. i saw the one in chatgpt so i am very stoked to have the same capability in the API.

Re: announcing a new model at Dev Day 2024 - This TC article came out @ 3pm EST today and has this OpenAI quote:

"We’re not planning to announce our next model at DevDay,” an OpenAI spokesperson told TechCrunch. “We’ll be focused more on educating developers about what’s available and showcasing dev community stories.”

So unfortunately, sounds like we won’t get 4.5 or 5 til later this year. :pensive:

Given that it is spread out over the course of seven-and-a-half weeks, it seems unlikely they would drop a big new model.

I did think that it was odd especially since they have workshops beforehand, you would think they would want that afterward. They might even drop a new model before hand and then do demo’s about it at DevDay, but again it is called developer day and not new model day.

I hope they update DALLE-3 so we can edit, do variations, and other things that the competitors are doing. Would also be amazing if they could lower the price like they have been doing with the GPT models.

Wow, very exciting!! I wish I saw this sooner. Seems like sign-ups are closed now?

Has anyone heard back yet on whether or not they’ve been accepted? I know they said we will hear back if we’re in by August 23rd, but curious if they’ve started sending out confirmations yet.
