Die Uni Köln hat jetzt eine eigene KI!

Welche Ausbaustufen sind in näherer Zukunft geplant?

Die Weiterentwicklung von UzK:GPT schreitet kontinuierlich voran. Geplant sind unter anderem spezialisierte Modelle für das Programmieren. Auch wird in den kommenden Monaten eine Websuche integriert. Zudem schaffen neue leistungsstarke GPUs und CPUs die Grundlage für ein neues Ratelimit, sodass künftig mehr gleichzeitige Anfragen möglich sein werden.
