OpenAI's new o1 model, designed with "enhanced reasoning," hides its full thought process from users, and gives policy warnings for asking about it.

If you want to try the o1 models for yourself, you can create a free ChatGPT account, sign in, toggle "alpha modes" from the model picker, and choose o1-mini. If you want to try o1-preview, you'll have to subscribe to a ChatGPT Plus account for $20 per month.

OpenAI is releasing a new model called o1, the first in a planned series of “reasoning” models that have been trained to answer more complex questions, faster than a human can. It’s being released alongside o1-mini, a smaller, cheaper version. And yes, if you’re steeped in AI rumors: this is, in fact, the extremely hyped Strawberry model.
