Meet OpenAI o1: The New Brainiac Model That Outsmarts Its Speedy Siblings
OpenAI’s new models, including the o1 and o1-mini, think before responding, tackling complex problems more effectively than GPT-4o. While o1 excels in math and coding, it lacks some basic features, making GPT-4o still handy for common tasks. Access them via ChatGPT Plus, Team, or API tier 5 for now.

Hot Take:
OpenAI’s latest brainchild, the o1 model, proves that even AI needs to stop and smell the roses… or in this case, the coding errors. It’s like ChatGPT went to a mindfulness retreat and came back with a PhD in patience!
Key Points:
- OpenAI has launched the o1 series of models, designed to take more time to think before responding.
- The o1 model excels in complex tasks like science, coding, and math, scoring 83% in the International Mathematics Olympiad qualifying exam.
- o1 lacks some of the features of GPT-4o, like internet browsing and media upload capabilities.
- OpenAI also introduced the o1-mini model, which is more cost-effective and particularly effective at coding.
- Access to these models is available to ChatGPT Plus, Team users, and developers with API usage tier 5, with plans to roll out to all users.
