GPT-4.5: OpenAI’s Most Interesting Model Yet?

OpenAI has launched GPT-4.5! While it's not a frontier model, it significantly boosts computational efficiency and offers better performance than GPT-4. However, it's 30 times more expensive and less competitive against state-of-the-art models. Designed for creative tasks with a focus on emotional intelligence, GPT-4.5 is set to be a robust base for future reasoning models. Tune in to learn more about its features, pricing, and the evolving landscape of AI models.

“Intelligence too cheap to meter” - famous last words

[DogeDELUX]

Personally, I see the appeal with this model. LLMs aren't just for coding or reasoning.

I like it when LLMs tackle the human element too, because yes I'm one of those people who likes to blur the boundaries between AI and human. I do care about the vibes, and if they can make AI sound more realistic in terms of the subtleties that makes up organic human dialogue, then I am all on board with it.

For now it is way too expensive, but I don't believe they won't lower down the prices soon. Just imagine, within a year or two this may become the standard OpenAI model.

Since the cut off is 2023, then the downstream models were published already...(?) and now this is the late public release of the foundation model(?) - makes more sense to me...

[WINTERMUTE_AI]

I think its awesome! I hope they can bring the price down.

[JC-xxdm]

Why are most of the people trashing it seemingly focusing on its reasoning and calculation ability when its been clearly stated that its a chat, emotional support, conversational AI model.

[Kutsushita_yukino]

atleast it gathers everyones attention to different kind of task other than reasoning. some model might come out of nowhere better than what this model is trying to achieve, with a better cost

[rexmanigsaca]

4.5 is a conversational model that's why it has huge data. It is not a reasoning model and for coding. In GPT 5, they will combine all these model into one whole intellect. Combining the EQ and IQ.

[danielneu]

honestly it seems like people don't really get how powerful a larger model (and thus better worldmodel and world understanding ) is. All models are good at coding and math nowadays, but even if that is at the base of almost all products, most value lies in those tasks that require the soft skills that GPT4.5 excels at. It may unlock a whole range of use cases in Marketing, Sales, psychology and so on (bc honestly the models we have are not good at that, they just generate loads of nonsense!) But if you look at how persuasive GPT 4.5 is in comparison to other models (Make me pay Benchmark) the value really comes across. this simply is not a coding or math model, but that does not make it less valuable.

Strange one. I don't see much use in it for the general public to be honest. It is just more expensive (much more) and very slow. What it offers is very little. It is basically worse for everything but for "sounding human and empathic". So... digital waifus?

[ShivrajSingh-poys]

First benefit goes to businesses that too larger ones

[complianceaves]

Is this what "Sam Saw" last year that got the Open AI scared and Sam fired I wonder ?

[flrn]

I'd qualify it as way too expensive, and way too slow. But yay, new openAI model 🙃🙃

[micbab-vgmu]

i do not see any place for this model in my workflows - even in creative writing - Claude and Gemini work better.

[Wanderer]

I think see the angle they’re trying to take. Which is that most people aren’t geniuses, people are just average people. It doesn’t hurt to create an AI that isn’t hyper focused on being a genius, but instead optimized to more being just like an average person. This makes more sense if you want AI to inter mingle with society as our friends, like cyberpunk, instead of just super genius scientists or over professional secretary assistants

[Guyverman]

Could GPT-5 be the first actual reasoning model?

[hydrohasspoken]

"most interesting"? That says a lot

[julien]

Most of the people that are rating AI models are developpers. Well GPT 4.5 is not for you ! Wait for o3 and GPT5.
Writers on the other end will benefit greatly from GPT 4.5.

Unas semanas despues en China.. Hacemos lo mismo gratis...

Can you make subtitle Indonesia sir? My English so bad

[MelikeBalcı-ni]

Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
