OpenAI has released GPT-4.5, the latest version of its chatbot technology, which will focus more on natural conversation but is expected to generate less excitement compared to its predecessor, GPT-4.

Meta Platforms Inc. is set to release a standalone Meta AI app in mid-2024, aiming to position itself as a leader in artificial intelligence and compete against OpenAI. CEO Mark Zuckerberg highlights the importance of this app in providing a more personalized AI experience for users.
