So, how about OpenAI's o1 and o1 Pro?

Sam Altman: o1 is powerful but it's not so powerful that the universe needs to send us a tsunami.

As a result, the universe realized its mistake, and cancelled the tsunami.

We now have o1, and for those paying $200/month we have o1 pro.

It is early days, but we can say with confidence: They are good models, sir. Large improvements over o1-preview, especially in difficult or extensive coding questions, math, science, logic and fact recall. The benchmark jumps are big.

If you’re in the market for the use cases where it excels, this is a big deal, and also you should probably be paying the $200/month.

If you’re not into those use cases, maybe don’t pay the $200, but others are very much into those tasks and will use this to accelerate those tasks [...]
