However, it’s still in an early state, lacking features like web browsing. OpenAI o1 will be available to ChatGPT Plus and Team users.

Hot Take:

Looks like OpenAI’s newest brainchild, o1-preview, is here to save us all from tedious math problems—just don’t ask it to browse the web or upload a cat pic anytime soon.

Key Points:

  • OpenAI o1-preview, previously code-named “Strawberry,” is designed to tackle complex tasks with advanced reasoning.
  • It performs similarly to PhD students in challenging academic tasks but is still in a preview stage with more updates to come.
  • Currently available to ChatGPT Plus and Team users, with a lightweight version (o1-mini) planned for free users.
  • Scored 84/100 in safety tests, significantly outperforming its predecessor.
  • Despite improvements, the model still has limitations and occasional “hallucinations” of facts.
