Over the past 12 business days, OpenAI has announced a new product or demoed an AI feature every weekday, calling the PR event "12 days of OpenAI." This illustrates the intensifying competition in AI development, as OpenAI works to keep pace with Google’s rapid releases. The compressed timeline of announcements has given users and developers much to digest as they approach 2025.
Humorously, we asked ChatGPT what it thought about the whole series of announcements, and it was skeptical that the event even took place. 'The rapid-fire announcements over 12 days seem plausible,' wrote ChatGPT-4o, 'But might strain credibility without a clearer explanation of how OpenAI managed such an intense release schedule, especially given the complexity of the features.'
On the first day of OpenAI, the company released its full o1 model, providing substantial enhancements for ChatGPT Plus and Team subscribers. This new model reportedly operates faster than its preview version and reduces significant errors by 34 percent on complex real-world questions, allowing for better handling of user queries and tasks.
The o1 model brings new capabilities for image analysis, enabling users to upload and receive detailed explanations of visual content. OpenAI indicated that it plans to enhance o1’s features to include functionalities such as web browsing and file uploads in ChatGPT, with API access for these features coming soon to facilitate even more advanced applications.
