Openai cancels O3 AI models in favor of a “unified” next-generation release

Openai effectively cancelled release of O3CEO Sam Altman was set to be the company’s next major AI model release in favor of what it offers “simplified” products.

in Post on X on WednesdayAltman said in the coming months, Openai will release a model called GPT-5, which will integrate many (Openai) technologies, including O3, on an AI-powered Chatbot platform. chatgpt and API. As a result of its roadmap decision, Openai is no longer planning to release the O3 as a Standalone model.

The company said in December it originally planned to launch O3 earlier this year. Just a few weeks ago, Openai’s Chief Product Officer, Kevin Weil. I said in the interview That O3 was on track for the launch on February 3rd.

“We want to do a better job of sharing our intended roadmap, and we want to do a much better job of simplifying our product delivery,” Altman wrote in the post. “We want AI to ‘just work’ for you. We recognize how complicated the delivery of models and products is. I hate model pickers (ChatGpt) and want to go back to magical unified intelligence. ”

Altman will also offer unlimited chat access to GPT-5 in “Standard Intelligence Settings” and unlimited chat access to GPT-5 in “Standard Intelligence Settings” once the model is generally available It was announced that this is. (Altman refused to provide details about this configuration (and these abuse thresholds).) ChatGPT Plus subscribers run GPT-5 with “higher level of intelligence.” Altman says it can, but ChatGPT pro subscribers can run GPT-5 with “even higher levels of intelligence.”

“These models incorporate voice, canvas, search, deep search, and more,” says Altman, referring to the various features OpenAI has launched in ChatGPT over the past few months. “(a) Our best goal is to create a system that can use all the tools, know if we should think about it for a long time, and generally useful for a very wide range of tasks (our) models. It’s about integrating the

Before the GPT-5 is released, Openai plans to release the code name “Orion” for the GPT-4.5 model in the coming weeks, according to a post from X’s Altman. – Thinking model. Unlike O3 and Openai’s other so-called inference models, unthinkable models tend to be less reliable in domains such as mathematics and physics.

From that sound, Openai is completely embracing the trends of the inference models that were likely kickstarted with the first inference model. O1the end of last year. Inference Models Effectively Fact Checking Self It usually helps to avoid some of the pitfalls that trip the model up. There are some delays in this fact checking process. Inference models typically take seconds to minutes longer and reach the solution. However, they tend to be more reliable and capable.

China’s AI Lab Deepseek has recently attracted global attention with its R1 model. This matched O1 on many benchmarks. In contrast to the O1, the R1 is an “open” model under an acceptable license. This means you can download it and use it to make it look good by the developer.

In a recent social media post, Altman Recognised That deepseek reduces Openai’s technical lead in AI, I said That Openai will “uplift some releases” for better competition.
