OpenAI's GPT-4 shows performance decline, study finds

A study by researchers at Stanford University and UC Berkeley found that OpenAI's GPT-4 model performed significantly worse on some tasks in June than in March, including a drop in accuracy on identifying prime numbers from 97.6% to 2.4%. The cause of the decline is unknown. OpenAI's vice-president of product, Peter Welinder, denied that the model had been made dumber, saying each new version is smarter than the previous one.
