OpenAI: OpenAI has released ChatGPT Images 2.0, the latest iteration of image generation. It is designed to create text-intensive images and can output up to 2K resolution images in a variety of formats. The model is capable of outputting eight images in one prompt and is able to better understand Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi and Bengali. Still, in order to make changes, images have to be regenerated.
OpenAI is also involved in a landmark trial brought by billionaire co-founder Elon Musk. Musk claims that OpenAI is moving away from being a nonprofit, in violation of an agreement he had with the company’s leaders. OpenAI’s lawyers argue that there were never promises that the company would remain a nonprofit. The trial is expected to last four weeks.
In a separate trial, OpenAI is being sued by family members of the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School shooting victims for allegedly knowing about the attack in advance, with accusations of negligence and product liability. The company has said that it has a zero-tolerance policy for using its tools for violence and that it has continued to refine ChatGPT safeguards.
