✓ Portable graph bundle live · download bundle · merged state

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Observations from these samples demonstrate that GPT-4V's unprecedented ability in processing arbitrarily interleaved multimodal inputs and the genericity of its capabilities together make GPT-4V a powerful multimodal generalist system.

C2weakest assumption

That the authors' hand-curated qualitative samples are representative enough to establish genericity and quality without quantitative benchmarks or controlled comparisons.

C3one line summary

GPT-4V processes interleaved image-text inputs generically and supports visual referring prompting for new human-AI interaction.
