Major ships we announced at Stripe Sessions today: usage-based billing, Organizations, Stripe Connect is now modular, Payment Element is now multiprocessor, and 50 other updates. Here’s a recap.
Introducing the Batch API: save costs and get higher rate limits on async tasks (such as summarization, translation, and image classification). Just upload a file of bulk requests, receive results within 24 hours, and get 50% off API prices: platform.openai.com/docs/api-refer…
Introducing OpenAI Japan, our first office in Asia, along with a new GPT-4 custom model specifically optimized for 日本語 (the Japanese language). openai.com/blog/introduci…
One of my favorite ChatGPT use cases lately is as a thought partner to more deeply understand news stories. Great for quickly understanding terms, charts, and historical context.
🔥Exciting news -- GPT-4-Turbo has just reclaimed the No. 1 spot on the Arena leaderboard again! Woah! We collect over 8K user votes from diverse domains and observe its strong coding & reasoning capability over others. Hats off to @OpenAI for this incredible launch! To offer…
Our new GPT-4 Turbo is now available to paid ChatGPT users. We’ve improved capabilities in writing, math, logical reasoning, and coding. Source: github.com/openai/simple-…
Do you have a home printer you’ve used with your Mac for over a year, and you firmly believe it does not suck? I would like to know if such a printer exists.
A glimpse of our early work with artists and filmmakers to see how Sora can help bring ideas into reality: openai.com/blog/sora-firs…
I hope someone makes a behind the scenes documentary about @TheOnion one day
Streaming is now available in the Assistants API! You can build real-time experiences with tools like Code Interpreter, retrieval, and function calling. platform.openai.com/docs/assistant…

If this Sora sample reminds you of a reduce-scatter and all-gather, we are hiring! We are looking for people who are passionate about systems efficiency, believe in scaling, and have expertise tackling these problems. If this sounds like a fit, please reach out!
We’ve just doubled GPT-4 Turbo rate limits across the board and removed all daily limits. Here are the new maximum tokens per minute (TPM) you can now achieve. platform.openai.com/docs/guides/ra…

Is your company using ChatGPT, or a custom GPT, or a tool you've built yourself using some AI APIs to make your non-eng teams more efficient day-to-day? I'd love to know! I'm looking for examples of internal AI products already making teams legitimately more productive,…
Did Slack invent the react-with-an-emoji paradigm? It seems simple, but these become significant cultural artifacts for teams/companies, especially when people are empowered to create their own.
One of my favorite things about @ChatGPTapp: It makes old books come alive

We hit 99.99988% availability for Stripe's payments APIs in April (and at record scale). Just a hair more than one error for every million payments.
👨💻 We launched a brand new openai.com yesterday! This is just the beginning and I'm excited to keep building. The reference we used internally was moving our old furniture into a new house and we can't wait to add features, redo content, etc. More to come! 👀
Everyone talking about how this page finally gives Stripe’s page a run for its money and it’s just Thomas making both lol.

IMO an under-discussed thing about AI is its ability to actually be a huge accelerant towards a world with carbon-free energy ‘too cheap to meter.’ The fact that the companies who need massive amts of net new energy *are also* the ones who have the ability to pay a premium for…
@blakesamic thanks :) uber got so much better when you joined and i remember the days of us in a room trying to figure out what to do with all those iphones. pls holler when you find yourself in nyc - would love to hang!
Today, Uber is a $140B company with more than 6 million drivers. But in the early days, we had to overcome the same chicken and egg problem many startups face: Without drivers ➡️ riders couldn’t get a car And without riders ➡️drivers couldn’t make $ Here’s how we solved it:

A lot of people have asked how we built this hero. I think you might be a bit disappointed with how simple it is but lets take a look anyway 👇
I’ve become jaded by the word “community”. It’s been misappropriated by audience-builders (often unknowingly).
All of the humiliation and none of the management fees!
@achuth_hadnoor same reason you stole this pic instead of retweeting it. control over distribution
Introducing a new sample app to help you get started with the Assistants API and @nextjs! Great work by @ilanbigio and @karoliskosas. Let us know what you need next—we can’t wait to see what you build! github.com/openai/openai-…
We’ve open sourced a new quickstart to help you build with the Assistants API and @nextjs. It comes with sample code for creating a chat interface with streaming, and using tools like function calling, code interpreter, and the new file search. github.com/openai/openai-…
A very inviting new front door openai.com Kudos to whoever at OpenAI built this color palette and home page. And now compare this to Gemini, yikes Design matters
Most of what I know about research, I learned from Noam.
Many have pointed out that LLM benchmarks are broken and gamed. Happy to see my former resident @hughbzhang, @summeryue0, and the great @scale_AI folks do something about it! They made a private version of GSM8k and evaled GPT-4, Claude, Mixtral, Phi, etc: arxiv.org/pdf/2405.00332
I've got something exciting to tease! We're working on a smart new way to build websites at @automattic. We think it's going to be the easiest way to publish a site on the web. If you want to learn more or get access to our private beta, sign up here: WordPress.com/BigSky
Nick Dobos (@NickADobos) showed me how to use @ChatGPTapp to ship a website with two words and a single click. He’s the creator of Grimoire, the #1 custom GPT for programming that has been used for over 1 million chats. All he gave Grimoire was two words: “coffee website.”…
