Taking a first look at the Open AI o1 preview model

In this video Simon, one of our Data Scientists (or, well, more like our Chief LLM officer 😎), takes a first look at the o1 preview model. OpenAI says the model is part of a series of reasoning models for solving hard problems, with claims that performance is on par with PhD students within fields like physics and chemistry within some benchmarks.

Simon tests the capabilities of OpenAI's 01 preview model by challenging it with a mathematical geometry problem. The model demonstrates an unexpected approach using linear algebra instead of geometry, showcasing its evolving problem-solving abilities. Despite an initial miscalculation, the AI self-corrects to reach the correct solution, highlighting exciting progress in AI problem-solving and potential future implications for handling complex tasks.

Watch to explore how AI tackles such challenges and what this means for the future of AI applications.
