OpenAI’s new o1 models push AI to PhD-level intelligence

[LevelUP]

Wow, o1 seems so much better than all the rest... Most of the ones already widely available get the job done already...

I try to remain agnostic about which LLM is best.

I believe Claude 3.5 Sonnet is the best overall for coding, mainly due to the strict limitations on o1-preview, which only allows 50 messages per week. Additionally, you can't access the API unless you're a level 5 user who spends at least $1,000 monthly on APIs.

That said, I agree that most LLMs are sufficient for basic tasks.

ChatGPT is getting most of the attention, likely because they are the ones raising significant capital. According to their last funding round, the company is now valued at $157 billion.
