ChatGPT o1 can tackle complex science, economics and maths topics

The ChatGPT o1 model takes a little more time to respond to queries but proves to be promising in solving some of the world’s more pressing issues

OpenAI has launched the much-anticipated ChatGPT o1 (nicknamed Strawberry), which can think through problems and break them down step by step like PhD students reason and solve issues. 

Its areas of focus are science, maths and coding, and video testimonials on its website show a genetics expert, a quantum physicist, an economist and a programmer test drive the new function with varying results. Mario Krenn, research lead at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, explains in the video, “I asked a question about a certain quantum operator which I know previous models like GPT-4 would fail in this task. In contrast to GPT-4, this one gives me very detailed mathematics […] I think it tries to do something incredibly difficult.”

OpenAI tested this current model by making it take a qualifying exam for the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO): “GPT-4o correctly solved only 13 percent of problems, while the reasoning model scored 83 percent. Their coding abilities were evaluated in contests and reached the 89th percentile in Codeforces competitions.” 

Here’s everything you need to know about ChatGPT o1 so far.
