Study Notes
OpenAI o3-mini Overview
- OpenAI o3-mini is a new, cost-effective reasoning model.
- Available in ChatGPT and the API.
- It excels in STEM fields (science, math, and coding).
- Maintains low cost and reduced latency of OpenAI o1-mini.
- Supports key developer features: function calling, structured outputs, and developer messages.
- Supports streaming.
- Offers three reasoning effort levels (low, medium, high) for optimal use cases.
- Does not support vision.
- Rolling out to select developers in API tiers 3-5.
- Accessible to ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Pro users now; Enterprise access in February.
- Replaces OpenAI o1-mini in the model picker, with higher rate limits and lower latency.
Performance Benchmarking
- Mathematics: o3-mini matches or surpasses o1-mini/o1 performance across different reasoning levels.
- PhD-level science: o3-mini outperforms o1-mini at lower levels and equals/surpasses o1’s performance with high reasoning.
- Research-level mathematics (FrontierMath): Outperforms o1-mini / o1, especially with high reasoning (solving >32% problems on first attempt).
- Competitive programming (Codeforces): Achieves progressively higher Elo scores with higher reasoning effort, exceeding o1-mini and equaling o1 with medium effort.
- Software engineering (SWEbench-verified): o3-mini is the highest-performing released model.
- LiveBench coding: o3-mini surpasses o1-high with medium reasoning effort and further outperforms with high effort.
- Human preference evaluation: Testers prefer o3-mini's responses (56%) and find it more accurate and clearer than o1-mini, with a 39% reduction in major errors.
- General math and factuality: o3-mini shows strong performance overall.
- Response time (A/B testing): o3-mini is 24% faster than o1-mini (7.7 seconds avg vs. 10.16 seconds).
- Latency (time to first token): o3-mini is 2500 ms faster than o1-mini.
Safety and Accessibility
- Safety: Trained using deliberative alignment (reasoning about safety specifications).
- Signficantly surpasses GPT-4o on safety and jailbreak tests.
- Safety evaluated with the same approach as o1.
- Accessibility: Available to free ChatGPT users (choosing "reason" in message composer).
Cost Effectiveness and Features
- Cost reduction: 95% per-token price reduction from GPT-4 launch.
- Rate limits: Tripled rate limit for Plus and Team users (150 messages daily).
- Search integration: Works with search to find up-to-date answers (early prototype).
Model Relation and Evolution
- o1: Broader general knowledge model; o3-mini is specialized for technical domains.
- o1-mini: o3-mini replaces this model, offering better performance and efficiency.
- o1-high: o3-mini outperforms this model at even medium reasoning.
- GPT-4o: o3-mini surpasses this model on safety and jailbreak tests.
