Release of OpenAI's Strawberry Model

OpenAI has launched its new reasoning model, referred to as Strawberry, now known as O1 and O1 mini. This model is designed for complex reasoning capabilities, taking longer to process requests due to its multi-step reasoning approach, which may take up to 25 seconds for output. It demonstrates impressive performance in benchmarks, particularly in advanced coding and PhD-level questions, surpassing previous models like GPT-4 in specific metrics. However, there are concerns regarding the transparency of the model's reasoning process, as OpenAI has chosen not to share the reasoning traces that contribute to its outputs.
