🎙️ OpenAI Dev Day 2024

OpenAI's just had some major announcements at its DevDay 2024 in San Francisco. They really focused on improving tools for developers and introduced several key updates to make AI development more efficient and cost-effective.

Major announcements included a new API for real-time voice interactions, significant cost reductions, and improved image processing capabilities.

Let’s have a look:

 🎙️ 1. Realtime API: Your App's New Voice

 Public beta of low-latency, multimodal API for speech-to-speech experiences.

 The details:

• Real-time speech processing

• Six different OpenAI voices

• Available on paid tiers

 

🖼️ 2. Vision Fine-Tuning for GPT-4o

 Fine-tune GPT-4o with images and text.

The details:

• Enhances visual understanding

• Free training until October 31 (1M tokens/day)

 

✨ 3. New Playground Features

Quickly turn your ideas into prototypes. Describe what you’re using a model for, and the Playground will automatically generate prompts and valid schemas for functions and structured outputs.

💾 4. Prompt Caching: 50% Discount on Recent Inputs 

You’ll now get automatic 50% discount on recently processed input tokens.

This will result in significant cost savings for context-heavy applications.

 

🔬 5. Model Distillation 

Use larger models to fine-tune smaller, cost-efficient ones.

 

The details:

• Improves small model performance

• Includes Evals and Stored Completions

 

💰 6. API Cost Reduction: 99% in Two Years

 Dramatic decrease in API access costs since 2022.

These updates focus on making AI more accessible, efficient, and cost-effective for developers, potentially driving innovation across various industries.

📰 Pika 1.5

Pika Labs launches Pika 1.5 with more realistic movement, big screen shots, and mind-blowing Pikaffects that break the laws of physics, there’s more to love about Pika than ever before.

💡 Free Midjourney Prompts

Below you’ll find some realistic nature images made with Midjourney.

You can find the prompts below each image.

Use them as you like and get inspired ↓

Prompt: Hyper-realistic photograph, POV shot navigating through a deep, narrow canyon with steep red-rock walls towering on either side, hands gripping a rope ready to rappel down a shimmering waterfall into a crystal-clear pool below. The sun casts sharp contrasts of light and shadow within the canyon. Canon 24mm lens, f/7.1, ISO 400, high contrast, rugged terrain --ar 3:4 --v 6.1

Prompt: Hyper-realistic photograph, POV shot surfing a wave as the sun sets on the horizon, with the surfboard visible beneath the surfer's feet. The golden light reflects off the water, creating a stunning interplay of colors and shadows. The wave curls overhead, with the last rays of the sun casting a warm glow on the scene. GoPro wide-angle lens, f/4, ISO 200, sunset lighting, vibrant colors --ar 3:4 --v 6.1

Prompt: Hyper-realistic photograph, POV shot scaling a vertical rock face on a majestic mountain, hands gripping small crevices and feet carefully placed on tiny footholds. The cliff drops off into an abyss below, with a dense forest covering the valley floor. Above, the sky is a brilliant blue, with the sun casting dramatic shadows across the rock face. GoPro wide-angle lens, f/4, ISO 100, bright, crisp lighting --ar 3:4 --v 6.1
