Finale: Let’s wrap up the week with some news headlines. No, not the unity runtime fee – something bigger: A new model from OpenAI.
One of the biggest flaws of AI so far has been its logic and math performance. The previous model, 4o, scored 13% on the math olympiad problems. The newest one just released, scored 83%. (Funny enough, similar to the math olympiad score I had back in high school 🤓 )
This is probably the Q* project they’ve been teasing (or being leaked). But what’s the significance? Why is this relevant? Don’t we already have calculators?
The thing is, predicting words is one thing, logic is a completely separate pattern that can lead to better chain-of-thought reasoning that can answer tasks more effectively.
The current model is said to perform as well as PhD students in physics, biology, and chemistry.
