OpenAI recently released a new AI model and desktop version of ChatGPT, along with an updated user interface, making GPT-4 accessible to everyone, including its free users, as announced by Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati in a livestreamed event last week.

GPT-4o, the new model, is "significantly quicker" and has enhanced text, video, and audio capabilities, according to Murati. OpenAI intends to enable users to engage in video chats with ChatGPT in the future.
