OpenAI has finally revealed the model behind its largely discussed project Strawberry. OpenAI has officially unveiled the full name of its AI model. The new model is o1, which is Open AI’s first reasoning model.
As explained in Open AI’s official blog, this model has the ability to ‘think’ before it responds. OpenAI said that o1 can solve complex tasks and tough problems. The company also claimed that it is the first of its kind to be added in ChatGPT.
Decoding o1
OpenAI officially revealed its latest model o1 on September 12, 2024. Introducing o1 can be an important step towards creating human-like AI. This model can perform harder problems and solve critical tasks as compared to OpenAI’s model. In addition to this it can also generate code, tackle complex challenges and solve multistep problems more efficiently. The new model spends more time on reasoning and thinking before coming up with solutions. OpenAI also said that the new model is a master in solving math and coding problems.
It also explained that this model can take time in responding as this ‘thinks’ before it advises you. However the company is working on speeding up the process. It also aims to add more updates on the o1 model. As of now it can solve PhD level problems in chemistry, biology and physics.
Furthermore, OpenAI o1 can also solve problems that are available at STEM. The model has the potential to match the level of AIME and Codeforces. The company also added OpenAI o1-mini which is a cheaper yet powerful version of o1’s original model. This model has equal capabilities as the original one.
OpenAI o1: AI that can think!
OpenAI’s o1 is expected to create a new benchmark in ChatGPT. Early reports suggest that ChatGPT had shown traces of ‘AI hallucinations.’ This had raised a chaos among scientists and users. Notably ‘AI hallucinations’ can be defined as the loophole in AI that makes them respond to wrong answers. For example, if you are asking ChatGPT to view Adolf Hitler, it might show you some random picture and not his. This is not only an error but can also spread misinformation among users. OpenAI’ s new model can reduce this and remove it to a certain extent. However, it’s yet to get perfect at this, the company highlighted.
So, who can access these o1 models? OpenAI said that both ChatGPT Plus and Team users will be able to access o1 models in ChatGPT starting from September 12. You can select both o1-mini and o1-preview in the model picker in ChatGPT. As of now you get weekly rate limits of 50 messages for o1-mini and 30 messages for o1-preview.
