The world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) witnesses heightened competition as OpenAI, Mistral, and Google unveil updated versions of their AI models, enhancing their application capabilities.

Recent developments reveal that within a span of twelve hours, industry leaders such as Sam Altman's OpenAI, Google, and the French company Mistral have introduced upgraded iterations of their AI models.

The anticipation around OpenAI's GPT engine's upcoming significant version launch has sparked a flurry of model updates across the sector. Notable announcements include Meta's enhancement of their Llama AI model and Google's rollout of the Gemini Pro 1.5, designed to be highly efficient in task execution with minimal computational resources.

Google's Gemini Pro 1.5 has been made available to the public, offering limited free usage of up to 50 daily requests. Simultaneously, OpenAI introduced the GPT-4 Turbo, representing a major advancement in their Large Language Model (LLM) series.

Both the Gemini Pro 1.5 and GPT-4 Turbo models are equipped with multimodal capabilities supporting text, audio, and video inputs. However, Mistral's approach to unveiling its Mixtral 8x22B model via a direct download link to a large file has raised concerns among industry experts. This method has drawn criticism for its potential risk of enabling misuse without adequate developer oversight.

The evolving landscape of AI continues to witness new advancements, with companies like Intel and Goldman Sachs exploring innovative models to rival the existing AI offerings from industry leaders such as NVIDIA and OpenAI.
