Blast off! | | | Image Credits: Jakub Porzycki/NurPhoto / Getty Images | More models: OpenAI released a new family of AI models today that are focused on coding. This new model family is called GPT-4.1, despite GPT-4.5 having already been released. These new models will be available through OpenAI's API, not ChatGPT. We hardly knew ya: OpenAI announced plans to phase out GPT-4.5, its biggest AI model yet, from its API. The model just launched in late February and will be available until July 14. The company is recommending its just-announced GPT-4.1 model as a replacement. A hack! Car rental service Hertz has begun notifying customers of a recent data breach.
