OpenAI o3

Last updated

OpenAI o3 is a generative pre-trained transformer model developed by OpenAI as a successor to the OpenAI o1 model. It is designed to devote additional deliberation time when addressing questions that require step-by-step logical reasoning. [1] [2]

History

OpenAI o3 model was announced on December 20, 2024, with the designation "o3" chosen to avoid trademark conflict with the existing UK mobile carrier named O2. The model is available in two versions: o3 and o3-mini. Until January 10, 2025, access is provided for safety and security researchers through an invitation-based testing program. [1] [3] OpenAI plans to release o3-mini to the public in January 2025. [4]

Capabilities

o3 demonstrates improved performance over the o1 model in complex tasks, including coding, mathematics, and science. On the ARC-AGI benchmark, which evaluates an AI's ability to handle new, challenging mathematical and logical problems, o3 attains three times the accuracy of its predecessor. [1]

As reported by New Scientist, o3 also scored a record high of 75.7% on the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) developed by Google software engineer François Chollet, a prestigious AI reasoning test, [5] but did not yet complete the requirements for the "Grand Prize" requiring 85% accuracy. [5] Without the computing cost requirements imposing by the test, the model also achieves a new record high of 87.5%, [5] while humans score, on average, 84%. [5]

According to TechCrunch, reinforcement learning was used to teach o3 to "think" before reacting using what OpenAI refers to as a "private chain of thought." [6] The model can allegedly plan ahead and reason through a task, carrying out a sequence of actions over a long period of time to assist in solving the problem, [6] but TechCrunch reported that this does increase the latency of responses.

Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems. It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals. Such machines may be called AIs.

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that matches or surpasses human cognitive capabilities across a wide range of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to specific tasks. Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that greatly exceeds human cognitive capabilities. AGI is considered one of the definitions of strong AI.

Recursive self-improvement (RSI) is a process in which an early or weak artificial general intelligence (AGI) system enhances its own capabilities and intelligence without human intervention, leading to a superintelligence or intelligence explosion.

ChatGPT is a generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI and launched in 2022. It is currently based on the GPT-4o large language model (LLM). ChatGPT can generate human-like conversational responses and enables users to refine and steer a conversation towards a desired length, format, style, level of detail, and language. It is credited with accelerating the AI boom, which has led to ongoing rapid investment in and public attention to the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Some observers have raised concern about the potential of ChatGPT and similar programs to displace human intelligence, enable plagiarism, or fuel misinformation.

Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4) is a multimodal large language model trained and created by OpenAI and the fourth in its series of GPT foundation models. It was launched on March 14, 2023, and made publicly available via the paid chatbot product ChatGPT Plus, via OpenAI's API, and via the free chatbot Microsoft Copilot. As a transformer-based model, GPT-4 uses a paradigm where pre-training using both public data and "data licensed from third-party providers" is used to predict the next token. After this step, the model was then fine-tuned with reinforcement learning feedback from humans and AI for human alignment and policy compliance.
