OpenAI is reportedly developing its next-generation o1 reasoning model, which will take more time to “think” about user queries before responding. However, the company is considering skipping the name “o2” due to potential copyright or trademark conflicts with O2, a British telecommunications service provider.
As a result, OpenAI is reportedly contemplating calling the update “o3,” with some leaders already referring to the model internally as such.
Recently, OpenAI chief Sam Altman posted on X, “Fine one clue, should have said oh oh oh,” he posted on X, clearly hinting about the release of the next model.
During the ongoing ‘12 Days of OpenAI,’ the company released the full version of the o1 model. Besides this, it also released the o1 model in the API, upgraded with function calling, structured outputs, reasoning effort controls, developer messages, and vision inputs.
Meanwhile, Google recently released Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking. The new model comes with advanced reasoning capabilities, alongside showcasing its thoughts. Logan Kilpatrick, senior product manager at Google, said that the model “unlocks stronger reasoning capabilities and shows its thoughts”.
According to Kilpatrick, the model can “solve complex problems with Flash speeds” while displaying its internal planning process and allowing for greater transparency in AI problem-solving.
The experimental model is still in its early stages. Kilpatrick, however, provided an example of its potential and showcased how it can tackle a challenging puzzle involving both visual and textual clues.
Developers can try the model out in Google AI Studio and the Gemini API. “This is just the first step in our reasoning journey, [I’m] excited to see what you all think!” Kilpatrick added.
With only one day remaining in OpenAI ‘Shipmas’, everyone is eagerly anticipating what OpenAI will unveil next to wrap up 12 days of nonstop shipping.
