Some of the most impressive advancements in AI are the development and release of GPT 3.5 and, more recently, GPT-4oin addition to being realistic AI Avatars And deep fakes. But there have been many other groundbreaking achievements in the field of AI – too many to include here.
Here are some of the most notable.
ChatGPT (and GPTs)
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot capable of generating and translating natural language and answering questions. Although it is arguably the most popular AI tool, thanks to its widespread accessibility, OpenAI has made significant waves in the field of artificial intelligence by creating GPT 1, 2 and 3 before publishing ChatGPT.

GPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer, and GPT-3 was the largest language model when it launched in 2020, with 175 billion parameters. Then came GPT-3.5, which powers the free tier of ChatGPT. The largest version, GPT-4, accessible via the free version of ChatGPT, ChatGPT Plus and Microsoft Copilot, has a trillion parameters.
Autonomous cars
Although the safety of self-driving cars is a major concern For potential users, technology continues to advance and improve with breakthroughs in AI. These vehicles use ML algorithms to combine data from sensors and cameras to perceive their surroundings and determine the best course of action.

The Autopilot feature of Tesla’s electric vehicles is probably what most people think of when considering self-driving cars. But Waymo, from Google’s parent company Alphabet, also offers autonomous journeys, as a driverless taxi, for example, or for deliver Uber Eats — in San Francisco, California, and Phoenix, Arizona.
Cruise is another robotaxi service, and automakers like Audi, GM, and Ford are also likely working on autonomous vehicle technology.
Robotics
The achievements of Boston Dynamics stand out in the field of AI and robotics. While we’re still a long way from creating Terminator-level AI technology, it’s impressive to see Boston Dyanmics’ hydraulic and humanoid robots using AI to navigate and react in different terrains.
deep mind
Google subsidiary deep mind is an AGI-focused AI pioneer. Even if it is not there yet, the company makes headlines in 2016 for creating AlphaGo, an AI system that beat the world’s best professional (human) Go player.
Since then, DeepMind has created AlphaFolda system capable of predicting the complex 3D shapes of proteins. He also developed programs for diagnose eye diseases as effectively as the best doctors.
