Introducing GPT-4 in Azure OpenAI Services | Azure blog and updates

At Microsoft, we’re constantly finding new ways to unleash creativity, unlock productivity, and enhance skills so that more people can benefit from using AI. This enables our customers to build the future faster and more responsibly by powering their applications using large-scale AI models. Our collaboration with OpenAI has been central to our journey with the power of Azure.

Today we are excited to announce that GPT-4 is available in preview Azure OpenAI service. Customers and partners already using Azure OpenAI services can apply for GPT-4 access and start building even more advanced models with OpenAI. In this milestone, we are proud to bring the world’s most advanced AI models to Azure customers, including Azure AI-optimized infrastructure, enterprise readiness, compliance, data security, leveraged, GPT-3.5, ChatGPT and DALL•E 2. and privacy controls, along with many integrations with other Azure services.

Customers can start applying for GPT-4 access today. Charges for all GPT-4 usage will begin on April 1, 2023 at the following rates:

GPT-4 for every business

When announced soon New Bing And A copy of Microsoft 365 Products are already powered by GPT-4, today’s announcement will allow businesses to use the same underlying advanced models to build their own applications using Azure OpenAI services.

With generative AI technologies, we are unlocking new efficiencies for businesses in every industry. For example, see how Azure OpenAI Service allows bot developers to create virtual assistants using natural language Pilot in force virtual agents.

GPT-4 has the potential to take this experience to a new level by leveraging its extensive knowledge, problem solving capabilities and domain expertise. With GPT-4 as an Azure OpenAI service, businesses can streamline communications both internally and with customers using a model with additional security investments to reduce harmful effects.

They are companies of all sizes Putting Azure AI to work for themMany are using the Azure OpenAI service to deploy language models to production, and are discovering that the service is powered by Azure’s unique supercomputing and enterprise capabilities. Solutions include improving the end-to-end customer experience, aggregating long-term content, authoring software and even reducing risk by predicting accurate tax information.

Customers are accelerating adoption of language models.

We are scratching the surface with generative AI technologies and working to enable our customers to responsibly adopt Azure OpenAI services to drive real impact. GPT-4, Epic Healthcare, Coursera and Coca Cola plan to leverage this growth in unique ways

“Our research on GPT-4 has shown great potential for use in healthcare. We hope to help doctors and nurses spend less time at the keyboard and analyze information in a more conversational and user-friendly way.”–Seth Hain, Senior Vice President of Research and Development at Epic

“Coursera is leveraging Azure OpenAI Services to create a new AI-powered learning experience across the platform, enabling students to receive high-quality and personalized support throughout their learning journey. Together, Azure OpenAI Services and the new GPT-4 model will help millions. More effective on Coursera around the world.” Learn somehow.–Mustafa Furniturewala, Senior Vice President of Engineering at Coursera

Words cannot express the excitement and gratitude we feel as a consumer packaged goods company for the limitless possibilities that Azure OpenAI has presented to us. With Azure Cognitive Services at the heart of our digital services framework, we’ve harnessed the transformative power of OpenAI. Image generation models to solve business problems and build a knowledge base. But it’s the huge potential of OpenAI’s upcoming GPT-4 multimodal capabilities that truly amazes and amazes us. The opportunities for marketing, advertising, public relations and customer relations are endless and we can’t wait to be at the forefront of this revolutionary technology. We know that our success lies not only in technology but also in developing the right enterprise features, which is why we are proud to have a long-term partnership. With Microsoft Azure, Azure OpenAI goes above and beyond, ensuring we have all the tools we need to deliver exceptional experiences to our customers. Great technology – it’s a real game changer, and we’re honored to be a part of this amazing journey.–Lokesh Reddy Vangala, Senior Director of Engineering, Data and AI, The Coca-Cola Company

Our commitment to responsible AI

As we mentioned in my previous blog, Microsoft has a layered approach to generative models, guided by Microsoft’s Principles of Responsible AI. In Azure OpenAI, an integrated security system protects against unwanted inputs and outputs and controls misuse. In addition, we provide guidance and best practices for customers to build applications using these models. With GPT-4, new research advances from OpenAI have enabled an additional layer of protection. Guided by human opinion, Security is built directly into the GPT-4 modelIt allows the model to be more efficient at handling harmful inputs, thereby reducing the likelihood that the model will generate harmful responses.
