ThursdAI - Apr 17 - OpenAI o3 is SOTA llm, o4-mini, 4.1, mini, nano, G. Flash 2.5, Kling 2.0 and 🐬 Gemma? Huge AI week + A2A protocol interview

  • サマリー

  • Hey everyone, Alex here 👋Wow. Just… wow. What a week, folks. Seriously, this has been one for the books. This week was dominated by OpenAI's double whammy: first the GPT-4.1 family dropped with a mind-boggling 1 million token context window, followed swiftly by the new flagship reasoning models, o3 and o4-mini, which are already blowing minds with their agentic capabilities. We also saw significant moves from Google with VEO-2 going GA, the fascinating A2A protocol launch (we had an amazing interview with Google's Todd Segal about it!), and even an attempt to talk to dolphins with DolphinGemma. Kling stepped up its video game, Cohere dropped SOTA multimodal embeddings, and ByteDance made waves in image generation. Plus, the open-source scene had some interesting developments, though perhaps overshadowed by the closed-source giants this time.o3 has absolutely taken the crown as the conversation piece, so lets start with it (as always, TL;DR and shownotes at the end, and here's the embedding of our live video show) Big Company LLMs + APIsOpenAI o3 & o4‑mini: SOTA Reasoning Meets Tool‑Use (Blog, Watch Party)The long awaited o3 models (promised to us in the last days of x-mas) is finally here, and it did NOT disappoint and well.. even surprised! o3 is not only SOTA on nearly all possible logic, math and code benchmarks, which is to be expected from the top reasoning model, it also, and I think for the first time, is able to use tools during its reasoning process. Tools like searching the web, python coding, image gen (which it... can zoom and rotate and crop images, it's nuts) to get to incredible responses faster. Tool using reasoner are... almost AGI? This is the headline feature for me. For the first time, these o-series models have full, autonomous access to all built-in tools (web search, Python code execution, file search, image generation with Sora-Image/DALL-E, etc.). They don't just use tools when told; they decide when and how to chain multiple tool calls together to solve a problem. We saw logs with 600+ consecutive tool calls! This is agent-level reasoning baked right in.Anecdote: We tested this live with a complex prompt: "generate an image of a cowboy that on his head is the five last digits of the hexadecimal code of the MMMU score of the latest Gemini model." o3 navigated this multi-step task flawlessly: figuring out the latest model was Gemini 2.5, searching for its MMMU score, using the Python tool to convert it to hex and extract the digits, and then using the image generation tool. It involved multiple searches and reasoning steps. Absolutely mind-blowing 🤯.Thinking visually with imagesThis one also blew my mind, this model is SOTA on multimodality tasks, and a reason for this, is these models can manipulate and think about the images they received. Think... cropping, zooming, rotating. The models can now perform all these tasks to multimodal requests from users. Sci-fi stuff! Benchmark Dominance: As expected, these models crush existing benchmarks.o3 sets new State-of-the-Art (SOTA) records on Codeforces (coding competitions), SWE-bench (software engineering), MMMU (multimodal understanding), and more. It scored a staggering $65k on the Freelancer eval (simulating earning money on Upwork) compared to o1's $28k!o4-mini is no slouch either. It hits 99.5% on AIME (math problems) when allowed to use its Python interpreter and beats the older o3-mini on general tasks. It’s a reasoning powerhouse at a fraction of the cost.Incredible Long Context PerformanceYam highlighted this – on the Fiction Life benchmark testing deep comprehension over long contexts, o3 maintained nearly 100% accuracy up to 120,000 tokens, absolutely destroying previous models including Gemini 2.5 Pro and even the new GPT-4.1 family on this specific eval.
