OpenAI set to launch new AI model ‘Strawberry’

Initial versions of the Strawberry AI model will only process text, without multimodal capabilities.

OpenAI is expanding globally with new offices in Singapore, Paris, and Brussels, building on its recent $6.6 billion funding round.

OpenAI is set to launch its new AI model ‘Strawberry’ within the next two weeks as part of its ChatGPT service. The model is designed to focus on reasoning rather than instant responses, could offer a more thoughtful conversational experience.

Led by Sam Altman, OpenAI has generated strong interest and investment in AI technology. Businesses are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence to enhance their products, with OpenAI reporting over one million paying users across its services.

Strawberry is reported to be a standalone offering within ChatGPT, though details remain unclear on how it will be integrated. Initially, the model will only handle text input and output, without multimodal features.

Both OpenAI and Microsoft declined to comment on the release, but expectations are high for how this development could impact the AI landscape.
