GPT-4V
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What the numbers mean
About this model
GPT-4V was published by OpenAI, in the country recorded as United States of America, during September 2023. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Vision, Language, and is recorded as performing the task of language modeling, Visual question answering.
Its starting point was an existing base model, GPT-4 (Mar 2023). Most models at this scale are adapted from an existing base rather than built from nothing.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
How it was trained
It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: significant use.
Answers
GPT-4V — common questions
GPT-4V— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
GPT-4V— who created it?
It was published by OpenAI, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.
GPT-4V— when was it released?
It was published in September 2023. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
GPT-4V— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Vision, Language, and is recorded as handling the task of language modeling, Visual question answering. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
GPT-4V— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
GPT-4V— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
