OPENAI A spear A more powerful version of its “reasoning” model O1, O1-Pro, in its developer API.
According to Openai, O1-Pro uses more calculation than O1 to provide “coherent responses”. Currently, it is only available to select the developers – those who spent at least $ 5 for the API Openai services – and it’s expensive. Very expensive.
OPENAI invoices $ 150 per million tokens (~ 750,000 words) introduced into the model and $ 600 per million tokens generated by the model. It is twice the price of the GPT-4.5 of Openai for the contributions and 10x the price of the ordinary O1.
OPENAI bets that the improved performance of O1-Pro will convince developers to pay these princely sums.
“O1-Pro in the API is an O1 version that uses more calculation to reflect and provide even better answers to the most difficult problems,” an Openai spokesperson told Techcrunch. “After receiving many requests from our developer community, we are delighted to bring it to the API to offer even more reliable answers.”
However, the first impressions of O1-Pro, which are available in the Openai Chatbot AI platform, Chatgpt for Chatgpt Pro subscribers since December, were not incredibly positive. O1-Pro fought with sudoku puzzles, users have found and were triggered by simple optical illusion jokes.
In addition, some OPENAI internal benchmarks from the end of last year have shown that O1-Pro was only working slightly better than the standard O1 on coding and mathematics problems. He answered these problems more reliable, however, the landmarks found.
