Andrej Karpathy, a leading AI researcher, has announced his departure from OpenAI. In a statement, Karpathy clarified that his decision was not the result of any problems or "drama" at OpenAI, and praised the "really strong team" and a "very exciting roadmap." Karpathy, known for his expertise in AI and his work as head of AI at Tesla, plans to focus on personal projects. His work at OpenAI was rumored to include the development of a personal AI assistant, similar to the concept of "JARVIS" from Iron Man, and he is looking into AI-driven operating systems. Karpathy was already at OpenAI in 2016, before returning to OpenAI about a year ago after working at Tesla in a leadership role developing AI systems from 2017 to 2022.

Commenting on GPT-5 at the World Government Summit, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that the new model will be "smarter" and perhaps faster and more multimodal. Altman emphasized that it is the generality of the model that makes it "so magical" and "a little bit better at everything," not just one task. Altman did not comment on a possible release date. He has previously said that it is technically difficult to predict the new capabilities of GPT-5. There are rumors that GPT-5 could be a multimodal AI model called "Gobi," which is scheduled for release in spring 2024 and is currently being trained on a massive dataset.

AI hype makes it possible: British chip designer ARM Holdings has seen its market value nearly double in less than a week. The reason is last week's financial results, which showed a growing demand for AI technology. ARM's shares have risen about 98 percent since the results were announced. ARM's technology is not directly used for AI, but chipmakers like Nvidia use ARM technology in their chips. ARM's customers include household names like Apple and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). ARM chips are used in almost every smartphone.
