Should I be using GPT-4 instead of Claude?
in AIhttps://www.oneusefulthing.org/p/an-opinionated-guide-to-which-ai “GPT-4 is the most full-featured model. It has access to web browsing (so it is no longer stuck with just the knowledge it had at training), it is multimodal (which means it can “see” and listen to speech), it can create images, it can code and do data analysis, and it can talk back…

The AI Threat to Democracy
