GPT-4o Use Cases

OCR with GPT-4o

OCR is a popular computer vision task that converts images to text. GPT-4o accurately answers “Read the serial number.” and “Read the text from the picture”.

Using GPT4-o for Document Understanding

Our next step is to test GPT-4o's performance in extracting important details from images that contain a lot of text. When asked, "How much fee did I pay?" in regard to a receipt and "What is the price of Ham Restaurant?" in reference to a food menu, GPT-4o reliably provides accurate answers for both inquiries. 

Real-time Computer Vision Applications

The latest enhancements in speed, along with visual and audio capabilities, have finally unlocked real-time applications for GPT-4, particularly in the realm of computer vision. Being able to interact with a GPT-4o model in real-time, using live visual data, enables rapid intelligence gathering and decision-making. This capability is invaluable for a variety of tasks, including navigation, translation, guided assistance, and the analysis of complex visual information.

Client Support

GPT-4 has transformed customer service, fundamentally changing how businesses communicate with their customers. One of the standout applications of GPT-4 in customer support is through chatbots. These AI-driven virtual assistants understand and respond to customer queries more accurately and empathetically, providing round-the-clock personalized support.
