Künstliche Intelligenz: OpenAI streicht neues Modell - und setzt auf KI-Agenten

OpenAI, the creators of the popular ChatGPT, have cancelled the release of a new AI model due to security concerns. At the same time, they have introduced "Dot" agents, artificial intelligence entities that can independently perform tasks on behalf of users. A Dot can potentially do anything that can be imagined on a computer. After a successful launch in the United States, Dots are expected to become available in Europe soon.

Initially, users will only have access to one Dot per account, but eventually, a multitude of specialized Dots for various business domains such as accounting, marketing, or legal questions are planned. Currently, Dot-assistants are only accessible with a paid subscription, limiting their reach to business environments in the initial stages.

OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman has expressed optimism that they will eventually bring their technology to a mass market, benefiting billions of people. This move comes after Meta unveiled a similar AI assistant called Muse, which gained popularity in the US market after being featured in Apple's App Store. Meta's success in this area has positioned them as a strong contender in the race for leadership in artificial intelligence, following OpenAI's ChatGPT, which sparked the recent hype around AI.
