Introducing OpenAI o3 and o4-mini
OpenAI has introduced two advanced models, o3 and o4-mini, emphasizing improved reasoning, multimodal capabilities, and efficiency. The o3 model integrates image analysis into its decision-making process, allowing for operations such as zooming and rotating images within prompts. It also autonomously utilizes tools, including web search, Python code execution, and file analysis, to deliver well-rounded results. This model has established new benchmarks on tests like Codeforces and SWE-bench, surpassing its predecessor, o1. Meanwhile, o4-mini offers cost-effective, high-performance reasoning, excelling in math, coding, and visual tasks, while supporting greater throughput for high-demand applications. Both models are available to OpenAI’s ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team users, and they represent the latest step forward in delivering more sophisticated and practical AI solutions.
