OpenAI has launched its new “Strawberry” series of AI models, designed to tackle complex problems with greater precision and reasoning. The models, internally referred to as o1 and o1-mini, aim to enhance capabilities in science, coding, and mathematics.

  • Strawberry models: The new o1 models are integrated into ChatGPT and API, focused on improving complex task-solving.
  • Advanced reasoning: Using “chain-of-thought” reasoning, the models break down problems logically, automating a key prompting technique.
  • Performance boost: Scored 83% on the International Mathematics Olympiad qualifying exam, a significant leap from previous models like GPT-4o.
  • Diverse improvements: Achieved PhD-level accuracy in science problems and excelled in competitive programming tasks.

OpenAI’s breakthrough in reasoning models signals a new era for AI problem-solving, pushing the limits of what’s possible in both academic and practical applications.
