Sep 12, 2024, 05:15 PM

OpenAI has officially released its new AI model, OpenAI o1, internally known as Strawberry, after several months of development. This model is designed to enhance reasoning capabilities and solve complex tasks in fields such as mathematics, science, and coding. The o1 model series includes a smaller, cost-efficient version called o1-mini and a free tier version of ChatGPT. Both models are available to ChatGPT Plus and Team users, with o1-preview and o1-mini being selectable in the model picker. The new models are reported to perform at PhD-level accuracy on benchmark tasks in physics, chemistry, and biology, and can reason through problems similarly to human thinking. Additionally, the o1 model can fact-check itself, marking a significant milestone in AI development.
