OpenAI has introduced an impressive capability for advanced problem solving with the o1-preview model. The models are trained to think through problems in a similar way to humans, test different strategies and recognize errors. The o1-preview models perform particularly well in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects, reaching the 89th percentile in Codeforces competitions and performing at levels comparable to PhD students in benchmark tasks in physics, chemistry and biology.

The models’ safety and alignment standards were developed using a new training method that utilizes their advanced thinking skills to better meet safety guidelines. These safety measures were backed up by a detailed system map and external risk assessments.

For ChatGPT Plus and Teams users, the models are available immediately but are subject to a weekly message limit. ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu users will have access from next week. Developers using the API can start prototyping the o1 models today. OpenAI also plans to make the o1-mini available to all free users.
