Openai launched a new light artificial intelligence model that, he said, is able to reason like humans and improves efficiency; A product that will be closely followed after the launch of an Open Deepseek source model from China.
The model, which was launched on Friday, is called O3-mini and will be free of use. The company first announced its plans for the O3-mini in December, at the same time that it presented a more powerful version, O3. Both models are designed to answer complicated questions related to topics such as coding, mathematics and science.
The moment is expected: OpenAi said last year that O3-mini would launch at the end of January and O3 would arrive shortly after. But the launch also coincides with a panic in the industry about the advances that Depseek seems to have achieved.
The Deepseek model, R1, rivals or exceeds the main American developers in a variety of industry reference points, the company said. For example, you can complete mathematical tasks and answer questions with general knowledge. And, what is fundamental, was created by a small fraction of the cost, which began a broader debate about the price and the value of these models. OpenAI is currently in conversations to raise a mass financing round of US $ 40,000 million with an assessment of up to US $ 300,000 million.
Openai said Friday that O3-MINI is already available through its chatbot chatbot for free users and users of chatgpt plus payments, as well as for those who pay for their Pro and Team services. The model is also available through the company’s application programming interface (API). The company will offer it to business users in a weeksaid.
