o3, our latest reasoning model, is a breakthrough, with a step function improvement on our hardest benchmarks. we are starting safety testing & red teaming now.
Today OpenAI announced o3, its next-gen reasoning model. We've worked with OpenAI to test it on ARC-AGI, and we believe it represents a significant breakthrough in getting AI to adapt to novel tasks.
It scores 75.7% on the semi-private eval in low-compute mode (for $20 per task in compute ) and 87.5% in high-compute mode (thousands of $ per task). It's very expensive, but it's not just brute -- these capabilities are new territory and they demand serious scientific attention.

sora is launching today to all chatgpt pro and plus users!
it's been a big effort to make this possible + i think the product is really fun & intuitive.
my fav thing to do is generate fake historical found footage. video inpainting is also really strong.
have fun!

I got a rare opportunity to ask OpenAI's video generation model Sora for some videos this week! I had 3 prompts. Here's the videos with my prompts and what I learned 🧵

"cinematic trailer for a group of samoyed puppies learning to become chefs"
Video generated by Sora.
If this Sora sample reminds you of a reduce-scatter and all-gather, we are hiring! We are looking for people who are passionate about systems efficiency, believe in scaling, and have expertise tackling these problems. If this sounds like a fit, please reach out!

Sora can also generate stories involving a sequence of events, although it's far from perfect.
For this video, I asked that a golden retriever and samoyed should walk through NYC, then a taxi should stop to let the dogs pass a crosswalk, then they should walk past a pretzel and hot dog stand, and finally they should end up looking at Broadway signs.
