OpenAI’s Model Mayhem: What You Need to Know About the New AI Releases

OpenAI’s plans include launching five new AI models this week, like GPT-4.1, 4.1 nano, and 4.1 mini. While GPT 5 isn’t on the horizon yet, these new models promise a naming convention that could have us all playing “AI Bingo” just to keep track!

Hot Take:

Looks like OpenAI is dropping new AI models faster than you can say “GPT-4.1 mini.” With so many models coming out, they’re turning into the Baskin Robbins of the AI world—31 flavors and counting. Let’s just hope they don’t make us choose between o4-mini and 4.1 mini in a dark alley!

Key Points:

  • OpenAI is set to launch five new AI models, including GPT-4.1, 4.1 nano, and 4.1 mini, possibly this week.
  • The models include o4-mini and o3, showcasing OpenAI’s expanding model lineup.
  • Confusion may arise due to similar-sounding names like o4-mini and 4.1-mini, despite their different purposes.
  • No GPT-5 on the horizon yet, so don’t hold your breath for the next big leap.
  • A new 4o imagegen model API is rumored to be in the works, with an unclear release timeline.
