The Great Showdown! OpenAI may release GPT-4.5 to target Musk's Grok 3

At 1 AM today, OpenAI CEO and co-founder Sam Altman stated that for high-demand testers, the experience of trying GPT-4.5 and feeling AGI is far more profound than I expected!

This indicates that GPT-4.5 has entered the testing phase and is very close to official release.

Meanwhile, Musk announced last Sunday that he would live-stream the release of "the smartest AI on Earth"—Grok3—at 8 PM Pacific Time on Monday.

So, with just a few hours until Grok3 is released, Altman's whole GPT-4.5 rollout is clearly aimed at his arch-rival Musk, sparking heated discussions on social media.

Some netizens suggested, why not release GPT-4.5 at 7:30 PM Eastern Time?

Altman replied, that might not be a good idea～

A netizen revealed that the OpenAI team is gathering to watch the live stream of Grok-3 and then decide whether to launch GPT-4.5, and Altman will also attend this viewing party.

This means that if Grok-3 steals the spotlight, OpenAI might unleash the big move of GPT-4.5 to counter it.

A few years ago, I often stayed up late to watch the Oscars or the Grammy Awards. Today, for the live stream release of Grok3, I will wake up at 5 AM (Spanish time). I'm not sure if this is because I'm getting older or if it's more like something a tech-obsessed teenager would do ;)

This indicates a certain level of uncertainty and concern within OpenAI, which is great! I hope to use various excellent models and continuously push technology to the cutting edge through such competition.

Haha, these rumors are so interesting. If such a thing really happens, it would be quite fascinating, exciting, and wonderful for the artificial intelligence industry.

I hope Grok 3 can bring tangible improvements, rather than just making progress in benchmark tests.

They will definitely be keeping a close eye on it. In any case, overshadowing Grok 3 won't be easy. Grok 3 will be released at 8 PM Pacific Time and 11 PM Eastern Time, while OpenAI generally does not release products at this time. For a long time to come, everyone's attention will be focused on Grok 3.

Even if OpenAI decides to launch something new in the morning, everyone, including all creators, will be busy creating content like "Ten Uses of Grok 3," and the scene will be as lively as the Westward Expansion era.

I have been trying to use Stable Diffusion and am very curious about how the OpenAI team's decisions regarding GPT-4.5 will affect the landscape of generative AI. Sam Altman's involvement undoubtedly adds weight to this discussion.

In any case, OpenAI is facing a strong competitor this time. Musk's Gork3 is said to be the latest AI model trained using 100,000 GPUs, reportedly featuring many innovative functions.
