Leopold Aschenbrenner, researcher at OpenAI, noted that the year following the launch of GPT-4 would be characterized by a slower pace of progress in artificial intelligence (AI). This statement highlights a period of subdued expectations and more gradual development in the field of AI.

The reasons behind this assessment can be diverse, including technical challenges, ethical issues or even resource limitations.

One year since GPT-4 release. Hope you all enjoyed some time to relax; it'll have been the slowest 12 months of AI progress for quite some time to come.

Although the pace of advancement may be more moderate during this period, this does not mean complete stagnation. On the contrary, it can represent a period of reflection, consolidation and resolution of fundamental challenges that will pave the way for more significant advances in the future.
