AGI is a distance awayOpenAI's new o1 models make improvements in the ability of AI models to reason. AdvertisementIn some ways, the o1 models do enter OpenAI into a new paradigm. pic.twitter.com/niqRO9hhg1 — Noam Brown (@polynoamial) September 12, 2024Where previous AI models were bottlenecked by the data fed to them during the "pre-training" phase, Brown wrote, o1 models showed that "we can now scale inference". Related storiesJim Fan, a senior research scientist at Nvidia, noted that the technicalities underlying this are what have helped make this fundamental breakthrough of OpenAI's o1 models possible. Uncertainty hovers over how o1 models will perform more broadly.
