It's a perfect situation for Nvidia. You can see that after months of trying to squeeze out all % of marginal improvements, sama and co decided to brand this GPT-4.0.0.1 version as GPT-5. This is all happening on NVDA hardware, and they are gonna continue desperately iterating on tiny model efficiencies until all these valuation $$$ sweet sweet VC cash run out (most of it directly or indirectly going to NVDA).
Yeah if 'worlds apart in style' means 'kinda similar'.
There was this joke in this thread that there are the ChatGPT sommeliers that are discussing the subtle difference between the different models nowadays.
It's funny cause in the last year the models have kind of converged in almost every aspect, but the fanbase, kind of like pretentious sommeliers, is trying to convince us that the subtle 0.05% difference on some obscure benchmark is really significant and that they, the experts, can really feel the difference.
Yes, it has the familiar hints of oak that us chat lovers so enjoy but even a non initiated pleb like definitely feels it's less refined than the cytrus notes of o4.
