In a new interview with Alex Kantrowitz, Brockman explains the key difference between ChatGPT and Sora, highlighting that OpenAI chose to allocate its resources to the former. “But the thing that’s important to realize is technologically that the Sora models, which are incredible models, by the way, are a different branch of the tech tree than the core reasoning GPT series. They’re just built in a very different way. And to some extent, we’re really saying that pursuing both branches is very…
A new study shows that artificial intelligence is boosting company performance, but not in the way most firms expect. The study, conducted by researchers from Harvard and INSEAD, finds that the primary barrier to AI-driven growth is not access to the technology itself, but the ability to identify where it actually creates value inside a business. Researchers studied 515 high-growth startups in a field experiment designed to test what happens when firms are given structured insight into how others deploy AI. The intervention focused on what the authors call the “mapping problem,” defined as the challenge of discovering where and…
