The "Strawberry" line of artificial intelligence models, developed by Microsoftbacked OpenAI, aims to enhance reasoning and problemsolving skills. Compared to earlier iterations, the dubbed "o1" and "o1mini" models, unveiled on Thursday, can do increasingly difficult jobs in science, coding, and mathematics. With an 83% score on the qualifying test for the International Mathematics Olympiad, the o1 model—accessible via ChatGPT and API—performed noticeably better than its predecessor, GPT4o. The models can improve their performance without human intervention by using a "chainofthought" reasoning approach to decompose issues into logical steps automatically. The work of OpenAI, which was first mentioned in 2023, demonstrates the organizations dedication to improving AIs capacity to handle complex problems. Read More..
