The company stated that early testing has shown that GPT-4.5 seems more natural. The model’s broader knowledge base, enhanced ability to follow user intent, and greater “EQ” allow it to be better at writing, programming, and solving practical problems. The company also expects it to hallucinate less than other models.

OpenAI is currently sharing the model as a research preview to better understand its strengths and limitations. CEO Sam Altman has deemed it "a giant, expensive model," revealing how the company ran out of GPU capacity to roll out to user tiers at the same time.

"We will add tens of thousands of GPUs next week ... this isn't how we want to operate, but it's hard to perfectly predict growth surges that lead to GPU shortages”.

Tencent has also launched an AI model to compete in the AI race. According to Tencent, the model has the ability to answer queries faster than the famous DeepSeek's R1. Known as The Hunyuan Turbo S, the model can reply to queries within a second. This makes it unique from models such as the DeepSeek R1, Hunyuan T1, and other slow thinking models that need to 'think for a while before answering”.

Tests have further shown how Turbo S' capabilities have matched DeepSeek-V3 in fields like knowledge, math, and reasoning. The company has also highlighted the usage costs of the new model are many times cheaper than its previous iterations, signifying how DeepSeek's open-source and low-pricing strategy has led other leading companies to follow suit.
