| OpenAI Launches Enhanced ChatGPT Version Catering to Enterprise-Level Security |
OpenAI, a pioneering force in artificial intelligence, announced on Monday the launch of a specialized version of ChatGPT tailored for large enterprises. This move aligns and amplifies the offerings provided to clients by OpenAI and its financial patron, Microsoft.
Known as ChatGPT Enterprise, this advanced solution comes with enhanced levels of security, privacy, and accelerated access to OpenAI's technological prowess, according to the company's statement. Notable early adopters of this innovation include Block, Carlyle, and Estee Lauder Companies.
The original release of ChatGPT aimed at consumers back in November sparked a surge in the utilization of generative AI for everyday tasks spanning from content creation to programming, amassing a staggering 100 million monthly active users by January.
Interestingly, despite discouragement from their employers, a Reuters/Ipsos poll revealed that a significant number of individuals in the US harnessed ChatGPT to facilitate work-related duties.
With the introduction of ChatGPT Enterprise, OpenAI aspires to foster a workplace environment where employers embrace the utility of ChatGPT for professional purposes.
While Microsoft currently extends access to ChatGPT to enterprises through its Azure OpenAI Service, businesses are required to be Azure customers to avail themselves of this capability. However, ChatGPT Enterprise subscribers are exempt from this prerequisite, as highlighted by OpenAI. Instances of collaborative services between OpenAI and Microsoft have surfaced in the past, and the degree of competition for clients remains uncertain.
When probed about potential competition between ChatGPT Enterprise and Microsoft's offerings, a representative from OpenAI responded by affirming that "customers have the freedom to select the platform that aligns with their business requirements."
