BREAKING AI NEWS

OpenAI GPT-4.1 is HERE 👀 

OpenAI recently introduced GPT-4.1, its API-only flagship AI model, along with GPT-4.1 Mini and Nano versions. These models demonstrate advancements in coding, instruction-following, and extended context comprehension, with a context window of up to 1 million tokens—outperforming GPT-4o’s 128,000-token limit 😳 

GPT-4.1 promises greater reliability and efficiency, offering 26% cost savings compared to GPT-4o 📈 

OpenAI is phasing out older models, including GPT-4, in favor of this latest innovation. GPT-4.1 Mini and Nano cater to developers seeking affordable and lightweight options. Additionally, upcoming reasoning models, such as o3 and o4 Mini, are on the horizon. While OpenAI delays GPT-5’s release, GPT-4.1 establishes itself as a pivotal advancement in AI technology  

The multimodal capabilities of GPT-4.1 ensure its application in diverse fields, with enhanced long-context understanding ideal for analyzing vast datasets. These developments set a high bar for AI models and expand possibilities for developers 👨‍💻 

Netflix is testing a new OpenAI-powered search 🤖 

Netflix is currently testing a new search feature powered by OpenAI, designed to enhance user experience by allowing subscribers to search for shows and movies using more specific terms, including their mood. This innovative tool goes beyond traditional search parameters like genres or actor names.

The feature is currently being tested on iOS devices in Australia and New Zealand, with plans to expand to the U.S. in the coming weeks 📆 

Netflix has a long history of using AI and machine learning in its recommendation systems, and this new search engine represents an extension of that effort. The company is in the early stages of testing and gathering feedback to refine the feature  

Would you find a mood-based search feature helpful for finding what to watch? 🤔 

Apple’s Siri upgrade may arrive in fall  

Apple is gearing up to release a significant upgrade to Siri, its virtual assistant, by fall 2025. This revamped version is expected to include smarter, more personalized features, such as the ability to edit and send photos via voice commands 🗣️ 

The upgrade, initially planned for iOS 18, faced delays due to internal conflicts and budget constraints. Apple aims to roll out these features alongside the iPhone 17 series and iOS 19  

The company has faced criticism for Siri's lagging capabilities compared to competitors like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. However, Apple is committed to refining Siri's functionality to provide deeper app integration and enhanced contextual understanding 👀 

OpenAI will soon phase out GPT-4 from ChatGPT 😢 

OpenAI has announced that it will retire GPT-4 from ChatGPT on April 30, 2025. The model will be replaced by GPT-4o, which is currently the default model in ChatGPT  

GPT-4o has been praised for its superior performance in tasks like writing, coding, STEM problem-solving, and conversational flow. While GPT-4 will no longer be available in ChatGPT, it will still be accessible through OpenAI's API.

CHATGPT THUMBNAIL GENERATION

Create custom thumbnails with GPT-4o 🎨 

You can create custom YouTube thumbnails instantly — using ChatGPT's native image generation with just simple text prompts, reference images, or even rough sketches  

Here’s how to get started 👇️ 

  1. Begin by uploading a reference image—either of yourself or your main subject—into ChatGPT, then provide a detailed prompt that specifies exactly how you want your thumbnail to look.

  2. To keep the style consistent, also upload a thumbnail you like along with your subject image. Ask the AI to maintain that same style while swapping out elements.

  3. Use follow-up prompts or the edit feature to further refine the result, noting any details that need adjusting.

  4. If you want even more control, include a basic sketch of your desired layout alongside any reference images you plan to use.
