>>OpenAI launched o1 — codenamed Strawberry — on Thursday night, with all the excitement of a dentist’s appointment. Across a series of tweets, Sam Altman described o1 as OpenAi’s “most capable and aligned models yet.” Though he conceded that o1 was “still flawed, still limited, and it still seems more impressive on first use than it does after you spend more time with it,” he promised it would deliver more accurate results when performing the kinds of activities where there is a definitive right answer — like coding, math problems, or answering science questions.
it seems to me like they nerfed the regular free ai model to give me imperfect replies on my benchmark consistently while the o1 model nails it consistently. before the free model would, depending on the day, give me more accurate replies to my benchmark .
thus widening the divide to make the o1 model look more useful. openai can do whatever they want and thats fine but all it seems to me they did was make 01 look good by comparison by nerfing the free product.
