GPT 5 — The New AI Era is Coming! Q-Star Project Explained...

Summary

The video discusses the firing and rehiring of Sam Altman as CEO of OpenAI and speculates this was done to pave the way for the release of GPT-5, the next generation language model. It first provides background on Altman's abrupt firing by the OpenAI board on November 21st, 2022 and the backlash this caused among employees who demanded he be reinstated. Altman is known for his ambitious vision for AI and advocacy for using it responsibly. The video argues the board fired Altman over disagreements about the release of an AI system called QAR that can supposedly reason and think independently. It claims QAR will be the foundation of GPT-5, giving it more advanced reasoning abilities. The video cites anonymous leaks hinting QAR represents artificial general intelligence. When the board received a memo from Altman's team about QAR's capabilities, they became scared of rapid commercialization of this powerful but untested tech. However, Microsoft, a major OpenAI investor, intervened to rehire Altman and replace the board, likely because Microsoft wants to profit from GPT-5 and needs Altman's vision to steer OpenAI accordingly. The video predicts GPT-5 will first be beta tested in early 2024 before becoming publicly available later that year. It will be a big leap forward, able to generate human-quality text, code, creative content and more while reasoning and adapting to users. However, the video notes OpenAI's roadmap suggests GPT-5 is still early in development. But it believes based on leaks that GPT-5 is further along than publicly stated. The video concludes GPT-5 is coming soon and will be transformative, but other AI models are also making big advances.

Keywords

💡Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)

AGI refers to AI that can reason and think at the same level as humans. In the video, it is suggested that GPT-5 will have AGI capabilities through the 'qar' algorithm, allowing it to adapt, learn and solve problems like humans. This would be a major breakthrough in AI. Altman seems to hint that AGI has already been achieved internally at OpenAI.

💡qar

Qar is a secretive new algorithm OpenAI is developing. It is rumored to allow AI to actually reason and think for itself instead of just predicting text statistically. This ability could allow GPT-5 to adapt to new situations, have more natural conversations, and tackle complex tasks requiring understanding.

💡GPT-5

GPT-5 is the rumored next version of OpenAI's language model. It is expected to be much more advanced, with possible AGI capabilities from the qar algorithm. GPT-5 may be able to write creatively, code, reason, and have natural conversations.

💡Sam Altman

Sam Altman is the CEO of OpenAI. He was temporarily fired by OpenAI's board, but then rehired days later, apparently thanks to intervention by Microsoft. This drama seems to suggest GPT-5 and the qar algorithm are progressing rapidly behind the scenes.

💡OpenAI

OpenAI is the company developing GPT-5 and the qar algorithm. Altman's temporary firing highlighted tensions around OpenAI's direction and the risks of releasing powerful unchecked AI. Microsoft rehiring Altman suggests they want OpenAI to stay on its ambitious course.

💡Microsoft

Microsoft investing heavily in OpenAI, owning 49% of shares. They wield power over OpenAI's board and direction. Microsoft swiftly rehiring Altman hints the qar algorithm and GPT-5 are strategically important to them.

💡Deep Learning

Deep learning is the key AI technique powering GPT through neural networks. The video explains how multiple neural nets in AlphaGo worked together to master complex game strategies, similarly multiple AI systems in qar may enable reasoning.

💡AGI risks

Powerful AGI has risks like disrupting critical systems, manipulation, or threatening humanity. OpenAI's board may have fired Altman out of caution about reckless AGI development, while Microsoft wants to aggressively develop it regardless.

💡Synthetic content

With advanced AGI, GPT-5 may be able to generate highly realistic synthetic text, images, videos, code and more. This creative potential comes with risks of misinformation and forgeries.

💡Artificial Superintelligence

Beyond AGI, the video hints at ASI or artificial superintelligence exceeding human abilities. This prospect scares OpenAI's board but Microsoft seems to covet its economic and strategic potential regardless of risks.

Highlights

Alman was abruptly fired as CEO of OpenAI, then rehired just 4 days later after employee backlash, signaling big changes ahead.

It's speculated that GPT-5, the next version of OpenAI's language model, will soon be released with groundbreaking new capabilities.

OpenAI refuses to comment on Project QAR, an algorithm that can supposedly solve math problems it's never seen before, suggesting its importance.

QAR may allow GPT-5 to actually think and reason at a basic level rather than just predict text statistically.

With QAR, GPT-5 may be able to adapt its responses to users based on understanding their preferences and learning style.

Some speculate the OpenAI board fired Alman over concerns expressed in a memo about achieving AGI (human-level intelligence) internally.

OpenAI's chief scientist appeared to express regret over the board's actions, hinting at serious concerns.

After firing Alman, Microsoft aggressively reinstated him, suggesting huge financial and strategic interest in GPT-5.

Microsoft may aim to steer OpenAI towards commercialization of its powerful models like GPT-5.

Limited beta testing of GPT-5 could begin in early 2024, followed by expanded access over the next 6-12 months.

Other AI models like DeepMind's Gemini aim to match GPT-5's capabilities through different methods.

Gemini combines a large language model with the ability to understand situational data.

OpenAI appears to be gathering massive datasets to train GPT-5 to generate human-quality content.

Official timelines for GPT-5 seem slow, but leaks suggest rapid progress happening secretly.

It's wise to try other AI tools beyond just waiting for GPT-5's release.

Transcripts

this video is brought to you by hopspot

the recent firing and rehiring of Sam

Alman is a much bigger deal than you

think while some people considered a

misunderstanding I see it as a huge

power move that transparently says that

gbt 5 is in the works and that Alman is

cooking something that could turn the

world upside down in this video I'm

going to tell you everything we know

about gbt 5 and show how Alman is going

to change the world apparently to begin

let's quickly recap the story of alman's

firing and re hiring on November 21st

Alman a co-founder and the CEO of open

aai was abruptly fired by the company's

board of directors this move sent shock

Wass for the community and sparked a

fierce debate about the role of

corporate governance in the development

of AI who should decide which way to go

the board's decision to fire Alman was

met with immediate backlash from open a

employees who rallied around their

leader over 95% of the company's

Workforce signed an open letter

demanding Altman's reinstatement and

many threaten to quit if their demands

were not met Altman is known for his

ambitious vision for the future of AI

and his commitment to using AI to

benefit Humanity he's also strong

advocate for transparency and

accountability in the development of AI

That's why his approach is so different

from how it usually goes instead of long

laab testings he just released gbt into

the wild and allowed millions of people

to not only do the testing for him but

also tightly integrate Chad gbt into

their lives and work in a surprising

turn off events Just 4 days after

alman's firing the openai board reversed

its decision and reinstated him as CEO

the board cited the overwhelming support

for Alman from employees is a major

factor in their decision however news

articles mentioned Microsoft quite a few

times as the ones who actually

reinstated Altman and on top of that the

whole Al board is now gone and has been

replaced with alman's people and to me

that's a clear flag that something big

is about to happen why would the board

fire their greatest asset and leader and

why would Microsoft pull their strengths

to reinstate Alman the answer is simple

GPT 5 the old board has expressed their

dissatisfaction with Altman's way of

doing things quite a few times the

initial board was assembled with a

nonprofit goal but Alman changed the

course towards commercial but Alman

changed the course to where his

commercialization and if we remember the

recent leaks about the qar qar project

we clearly see that the old board was

hesitant to release an untested and

possibly raw product to the masses this

qar project is really interesting and I

believe it's going to become the

foundation for the gbt 5 so what's the

deal with gbt 5 it's said to be a big

step up from the older versions the plan

is for it to be really good at writing

stuff coding and even making creative

content and it should sound a lot like a

real person wrote it gp5 is also

supposed to be better at not having

hallucinations AKA making stuff up and

giving false information it should also

become faster and more versatile in its

capabilities possibly uniting all

Standalone features such as Dolly and

code interpreter into one model so it's

like they're putting all the good stuff

into one big super smart AI this all

sounds great but what everyone's missing

is how it's all going to work that's

exactly where the qar project comes in

and by the way open AI now refuses to

give any comments on it which is

definitely worth looking into since the

company's been pretty transparent about

their findings so what's the qar from

what we've heard qar is the new

algorithm that's capable of solving math

problems it never saw before and did it

autonomously current generative AI

models while being good at tasks like

writing and language translation rely on

statistical predictions to determine the

next word leading to variations and

responses to the same question with math

there is only one answer no variations I

will make it clear for you it can think

by itself and not just copy stuff

current GPT 4 is really Advanced but

it's still mostly a glorified copycat

qar is supposed to actually think and

possibly even reason does it sound like

Terminator to you well this is all very

funny but what makes it all really

conspicious to me is the fact that the

reports about this project qar are quite

inconsistent for example reuter sources

say that the board of directors has

received a letter describing qar and its

possible development The Verge however

claims that there was no such letter and

the information ignores the letter but

talks a lot about the qar itself again

open AI Now is really secretive about

qar which means we're onto something

here now it's time to take a quick pause

and talk about this video sponsor

hopspot we both know how important it is

nowadays To Be Your Own Boss or at least

to earn more by doing less and there is

no better way to do it than with AI so I

think you should check out a great new

ebook called The Ultimate guide to using

Chad GPT at work this ebook is a

treasure Trove of information on how to

use Chad gbt a powerful AI part language

model to boost your productivity and

efficiency at work whether your looking

for help with simple tasks like

information retrieval or complex

projects like project management this

ebook has you covered one of the best

things about this ebook is that it's

packed with practical tips and advice

for example there's a section on how to

use Chad gbt to create surveys road maps

and improve conversion rates for

websites there's even a list of 100

readymade proms that you can use to get

started with chat GPT right away if

you're looking for a way to take your

work to the next level I highly

recommend checking this out it is truly

a valuable resource that can help you

save time improve your workflow and

achieve your goals this resource was

made by hopspot who's the sponsor of

today's video all you need to do is

click the link below to download it

let's assume that qar is really in

development and is heading towards a

release what would that mean for chbt

giving chbt the ability to think and

reason even at the level of a

preschooler would mean that gbt 5 will

be able to adapt to new situations and

challenges and do it properly it will

adapt strategies and responses as

conditions change Chad gbt will be able

to tackle really complex tasks that

require deep understanding and nuanced

reasoning solving the uh above mentioned

math problems designing intricate

algorithms and so on qar enhanced chbt

would become a boundless source of

creativity generating Reginal and

Innovative content from poems and

scripts to musical pieces and code all

without humans involvement and it won't

be copy and predictions it will be the

real deal real thinking on top of that

qar would enable Chad gbt to tailor its

interactions to individual users

understanding their unique preferences

and learning styles this personalized

approach will lead to more meaningful

and engaging conversations if this all

comes true then the answer to kind of

robot write a symphony or can a robot

turn a canvas into beautiful Masterpiece

will be affirmative right now this may

seem as far-fetched predictions and

speculations but I don't think we should

ignore these obvious signs mark my word

gbt 5 will use qar as a score but when I

think the best way to answer this is by

reading between the lines of this fire

than higher incident because the way it

all went down gives us the biggest Clues

to how close qar really is to paring the

next generation of Chad gbt let's take a

step back and examine the sequence of

events initially Altman's team presented

a memo to the board of directors

detailing a significant breakthrough

this memo seems to have been a turning

point leading to the board's decision to

terminate Altman a few days later Big

Daddy Microsoft comes back swinging and

reinstates Altman while getting rid of

the old board the key question here is

why would Microsoft take such decisive

action the answer likely lies in the

content of the memo and the Strategic

value of the qar project Microsoft's

aggressive move suggests that qar is not

just a minor update but a major Leap

Forward beneath the surface of the

recent open AI Saga lies a pivotal

moment Sam alman's letter to the

company's board of directors this letter

though shrouded in secrecy holds the key

to understanding the motivations behind

Altman's abrupt removal and subsequent

reinstatement as CEO it is plausible

that Sam alman's letter to the open AI

board of directors expressed excitement

of the development team about the

groundbreaking progress made on the

development of qar the enormous

potential with HS and so on I also think

that alen probably intended to roll out

the system as soon as possible and make

it commercialized which is quite in line

with his behavior as a Visionary and an

advocate for commercialization what

could have made the board get cold feed

is the possible expressed caution

Altman's team knows better than anyone

what this AI can do and if they've

written their concerns down this could

have given a wrong impression sounds

quite believable especially if we

remember the tweet from one of the

leakers who said and I quote AGI has

been achieved internally Alman then

repeated the sameon Reddit confirming

the leak so what is Agi AGI stands for

artificial general intelligence which

means the type of AI that possesses the

ability to understand and reason at the

same level as a human being it is

capable of learning solving problems and

adapting to new situations in a way that

is indistinguishable from Human

intelligence sound familiar that's

exactly what qar is a machine capable of

replicating human intelligence with its

ability to reason learn and adapt this

is some serious Blade Runner stuff when

the board got this letter they probably

became scared of such a rapid

commercialization of the new and

untested Technology the frenzy of AI

taken over the world has been pretty WI

WID spread in recent years people fear

that with the ability to understand

reason and learn AI could pose a

significant threat to society

potentially disrupting critical

infrastructure manipulating people or

even Waging War and while Alman was

given a speech during the Asia specific

economic Corporation Summit they decided

to fire him for not being either

transparent enough or Russian things or

something like that the speech Itself by

the way is pretty interesting here's

what Sam Altman said four times now in

the history of open AI the most recent

time was just in the last couple weeks

I've gotten to be in the room when we

sort of push the veil of ignorance back

and the frontier of Discovery forward

and get into do that is the professional

honor of a lifetime this is the most

direct and public admission of the fact

that AGI is already here that alman's

team taught computers to think but how

this is a very interesting bit that I

just can't ignore let me explain briefly

how this qar apparently works and then I

will come back to that firing story so

how does this AGI work there is no

official explanation but the best Theory

comes from nvidia's senior AI scientist

Jim fan Nvidia by the way is one of the

main suppliers of all those graphics

cards that make chbt possible so

according to gy fan qar is likely using

a combination of AI models that work

together to learn plan and Carry Out

tasks this is similar to How Deep Mind

Alpha go the AI that beat the world go

champion in 2016 used multiple neural

networks go is a notoriously challenging

game due to its immense complexity and

vast number of possible moves deep

mind's Triumph marked a pivotal moment

in AI history showcasing its ability to

surpass humans Alpha go learned by

playing millions of games of go against

itself Q Plus may use a similar approach

with one neural network coming up with

the steps for tasks another neural

network evaluating those steps and

giving feedback and a third neural

network looking at the possible outcomes

of each step this teamwork allows qar to

learn and improve very quickly just like

Alpha go got better at go by playing

against itself qar gets better at

carrying out tasks by working with its

different neural networks okay now back

to the firing so the board gets scared

what's the big deal alman's call for

expected exploration of super

intelligence raises concerns given the

longstanding anxieties surrounding ai's

potential risks and threats to humanity

while AI was once confined to the realm

of Science Fiction now it is very much a

reality I believe that there was

something much more Sinister in the

works so Sinister that open ai's Chief

scientist IIA sser who was working under

the alt board of directors tweeted I

deeply regret my partic ipation in the

board's actions I never intended to harm

open AI I love everything with built

together and I will do everything I can

to reunite the company this tweet even

left Elon Musk puzzled so he responded

with yeah something scared alas enough

to want to fire Sam what was it this

makes us all wonder what were the

contents of that letter and what a

monstrosities growing somewhere in the

depths of open AI slabs but why rehire

Altman apparently Microsoft has their

tentacles deep in the company and after

investing over $ 13 billion and owning

49% of shares they can dictate their

terms so a Visionary Altman rushes to

Microsoft's office tell us about the

situation and Microsoft makes a few

calls that lead to the alt board being

gone and Altman back on top I don't want

to be a tinfoil head guy but to me this

sounds extremely concerning and I see

two possible scenarios here one

Microsoft's decision to reinstate Altman

and replace the open AI board of

directors can be interpreted as a

strategic move to regain control of the

company's Direction it's purely

financial and Microsoft knows that

without Alman the company wouldn't be as

profitable and second the AGI is the

primary interest for Microsoft for their

Sinister Reasons by replacing the board

with people who share Alton's vision and

can Lobby Microsoft's interest Microsoft

aims to steer open AI back on course and

despite us all knowing Microsoft as the

evil empire both of these scenarios mean

the same thing GPT 5 is coming soon and

it's coming in hot when well I think the

roll out plan looks something like this

first quarter of 2024 open AI could

announce the completion of gbt 5

development and begin limited beta

testing with select partners and

researchers this phase would allow for

extensive evaluation of the model's

capabilities and potential applications

second and third quarters of 2024 based

on the success of the beta testing phase

open AI could expand GPT 5 access to a

broader group of testers including paid

users by this time it would make sense

to make GPT 4 publicly available for

free users this plan seems pretty much

in line with how open AI used to operate

however there could be slowdowns the

recent road maps shared by open AI

suggests that open AI is currently in

the early stages of GPT 5 development

focusing on laying the groundwork for

the model's training while active

training of GPT 5 has yet to commence

open AI is actively Gathering The

crucial component for training data the

company recently deployed GPT bot a web

crawler to expand its Corpus by

collecting publicly accessible

information from the internet this vast

drove of data will fuel gbt 5's learning

process Ena it to develop the ability to

generate human quality text translate

language and perform various tasks this

leaves a lot of confusion the road map

says one thing but leaked information

hints at a more Speedy arrival and I'm

personally inclined to believe that the

road map is mostly the thing for

investors but behind the curtains that's

where the magic happens where open AI is

already two steps ahead well should you

wait for gbt 5 of course yes but it's

important to remember that gbt Chad GPT

is not the only fish in the sea there

are other players that are making

significant advances for example Deep

Mind is working on Gemini a new AI agent

that's expected to be more capable than

Chad gbt Gemini would employ a similar

strategy of multiple AIS working

together but with the added power of a

large language model this combination

could yield A system that not only

responds to contextual and situational

data but also engages in natural

language conversations and follows

instructions like Chad gbt it's like GPT

5 but much earlier and just like and I

there are many other cool tools and AIS

that you can try we have made multiple

videos where we tested them so be sure

to check them out thanks for watching

and see you in the next

one
