Introducing and testing o1

Berman describes the new models and their reasoning approach. He then tries a Python game prompt and reacts to the result.

OpenAI’s long-awaited Strawberry model is here. There are two models, o1-preview and o1-mini. They are designed to spend more time thinking through a problem, and OpenAI says the model performs similarly to PhD students on some research tests.

FOLIE 1 / 1ChatGPT’s reasoning summaryThe interface shows the Python game prompt and a summary of the model’s reasoning.

I ask it to write a Tetris game in Python. ChatGPT shows a summary of its thought process, though not the raw reasoning, and reports thinking for 94 seconds. I try the result and react enthusiastically.
