After nearly two weeks of updates, OpenAI concluded its “12 Days of OpenAI” livestream series with an exclusive preview of its next-generation AI frontier model. The company announced that it is currently testing advanced reasoning models, dubbed o3 and o3 mini, signaling an intensifying race with competitors like Google to develop smarter AI capable of solving intricate challenges. CEO Sam Altman revealed plans to roll out the o3 mini by the end of January, with the full version of o3 to follow shortly after. These enhanced large language models aim to surpass current capabilities, potentially driving greater adoption and attracting new investments.

In September, OpenAI introduced its o1 AI models, designed to dedicate more time to processing queries and tackling complex problems. These models showcased advanced reasoning capabilities, excelling in solving intricate challenges across science, coding, and math, as highlighted in a company blog post. Building on this innovation, OpenAI has announced the development of its next-generation o3 and o3 mini models. Currently undergoing rigorous internal safety testing, these new models promise to be significantly more powerful than the o1 models, marking another leap forward in AI reasoning and problem-solving.

The GenAI leader has announced the opening of an application process allowing external researchers to test its upcoming o3 models before their public release. The application process will remain open until January 10. 

OpenAI made waves in the AI industry when it introduced ChatGPT in November 2022, igniting a competitive surge among tech giants. OpenAI closed a $6.6 billion investment round in October thanks to the company’s increasing popularity and the introduction of new products.

Meanwhile, competitor Alphabet’s Google has intensified the competition with the December release of Gemini’s second-generation AI model. Google aims to strengthen its position in the AI race and challenge OpenAI’s dominance in the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
