Inside OpenAI: Secrets Behind GPT-4, GPT-5 and the $300 Billion AI Revolution

Transformer Titans: GPT-4, GPT-5 and OpenAI’s Model Innovations OpenAI’s AI engines are built on the transformer architecture, a breakthrough design first introduced by Google researchers in 2017 (the famous “Attention Is All You Need” paper). At its core, a transformer model processes text by considering the relationships between all words in a sentence (self-attention), allowing it to understand context far more effectively than prior neural networks. OpenAI’s Generative Pre-trained Transformer models (GPTs) leverage this architecture at tremendous scale: they are trained on billions of sentences from the internet, books, and other sources, so they learn the statistical patterns of language. As the name suggests, a GPT model

Comprehensive Overview of Agentic AI What Is Agentic AI (and How Is It Different from Traditional AI)? Agentic AI, often described as autonomous, goal-oriented AI, refers to AI systems endowed with a form of “agency.” In practical terms, an agentic AI can make independent decisions and take actions in pursuit of an objective, without needing a human to prompt each step. It’s a step beyond traditional AI models that simply respond to explicit inputs. For example, a classic AI system (say, a chess program or a language model like ChatGPT) generates outputs only when prompted and doesn’t initiate further action

Such bursts (often from collapsing stars or black hole collisions) usually last seconds or minutes, not 24 hours. Telescopes on Earth and in orbit (including Hubble) caught the July event, and astronomers reported this week that it’s “unlike anything they’ve witnessed before” clickondetroit.com. Because the burst’s origin lies in another galaxy, it posed no danger to Earth, but its behavior is highly puzzling. Scientists say the long, recurring bursts defy established explanations
