With the advancements in AI technology, language models like GPT-4 have emerged as game-changers. The comparison between GPT-4 and its predecessor, ChatGPT, is inevitable due to the former’s enhanced capabilities. GPT-4 surpasses ChatGPT in terms of language understanding, text generation, multilingual support, and adaptable learning capabilities. In this article, we will highlight ten ways in which GPT-4 outperforms ChatGPT, demonstrating the evolution of language models in the AI field.
OpenAI has been releasing GPT language models since 2018, with GPT-3 being the most advanced model until ChatGPT was released in 2022. GPT-4 is the latest and most powerful large language model from OpenAI. However, currently, if you only have free access to ChatGPT, you will still be interacting with the GPT-3 model, which is also known as GPT-3.5.
How to try GPT-4 with ChatGPT+?

If you are using a free membership, you will need to upgrade by clicking the “Upgrade to Plus” button in the left menu. This will take you to a standard e-commerce sales page where you will need to provide the required information and pay $20 per month. Once you become a paying customer, your access to the new model via ChatGPT will be immediate.
When starting a new chat, you can choose to use one of the old models or GPT-4. However, OpenAI warns that GPT-4 is not as fast as the other models, so be prepared for a difference in speed.
If you are already using ChatGPT, you may be prompted to switch to GPT-4, and a text bar will be added to the middle of your existing chat, informing you that the previous model used in that conversation is unavailable, and you have been switched to the latest default model.
The outputs that used GPT-3 will have the old green OpenAI logo, while GPT-4-powered outputs will have a new black logo. If you wish to delve deeper into GPT-4, here is Open AI’s blog post on GPT-4.
