In a competitive environment, consumers win.
In response to DeepSeek, Wired reports that OpenAI is rushing out its o3-mini model and will make it free to everyone.
“OpenAI is preparing to launch a new model today, ahead of its originally planned schedule. The model, o3-mini, will debut in both API and chat. Sources say it has o1 level reasoning with 4o-level speed.”
The report also touches on some interesting internal debates and friction at OpenAI around releasing products.
