OpenAI says 80 to 90 percent of its research already targets GPT 7 and beyond

Boris Power, OpenAI's Head of Applied Research, stated that 80 to 90 percent of the company's research is directed towards GPT 7, GPT 8, and beyond. Improvements within a single generation are intentionally viewed as short-term bets. However, Power does not see model performance as the biggest issue. He pointed out that most users are unaware of what they can actually do with AI. This highlights a gap in understanding between the model's capabilities and the practical applications users could benefit from. The focus on future research reflects the company's commitment to developing more advanced models.
