This Week’s Top Bite: ChatGPT Enterprise Is (Finally) Here!
On Monday (Aug. 28), OpenAI finally launched ChatGPT Enterprise.
With the new Enterprise plan, aside from the ability to set up a companywide account, we’re finally going to see the promised increased security improvements that so many businesses have been waiting for — including uploaded data no longer training the AI’s models, data encryption (in transit and at rest) and compliance with SOC 2 (a compliance standard for customer data).
With all this new security, expect ChatGPT usage across companies big and small to grow exponentially.
Other Enterprise plan benefits, according to Open AI, include “unlimited, high-speed” access to GPT-4, increased output length (much needed for many business use cases) and API credits.
Pricing information is not being released. You have to contact OpenAI’s sales department for individualized pricing.
All this comes just in time, as ChatGPT access was recently found to be the hot new hiring benefit that candidate are asking for.
Practical Takeaway: If you’ve been holding off on using ChatGPT in your company because of security concerns, your wait is probably over. If security has been a major concern for your organization, send the following link to your IT, security, compliance and legal professionals and have them see if now is the time for you to start (or expand) your company’s ChatGPT usage: https://openai.com/enterprise
More Generative AI News
Google also announced its enterprise AI tools ($30 per month) to compete with Microsoft’s Copilot offerings, as well as several new AI tools this week, including Duet AI for its Meet App, which, some theorize, could attend meetings for you, and NotebookLM, for having AI conversations with your notes (read a review here).
The U.S. Copyright Office has posted a request for comment to hear from the public regarding possible new guidelines for AI-generated material. The office has been facing backlash in some corners for its current strict stance that basically comes down to the notion that AI-generated material can’t be copyrighted because it’s not human-generated (a recent court case also held that logic). Whether the agency changes its position could be vital for businesses that want to see their AI-generated materials as protectable assets.
OpenAI on Thursday announced Teaching with AI, a FAQ for educators seeking guidance on using (and dealing with) AI-related issues in education.
Gannett pulled a number of sports articles after readers made fun of the quality of the AI-written content.
If you care about AI for mainframes, then this is the news story for you.
Heads up: This week, OpenAI renamed its GPT-4 Code Interpreter beta feature to Advanced Data Analysis.
