According to Artificial Analysis, a third-party AI testing agency, evaluating OpenAI's o1 inference model across seven popular benchmarks costs $2,767.05, while its non-inference model GPT-4o costs only $108.85. This significant disparity sparks discussion regarding the sustainability and transparency of AI evaluation. Inference models, AI systems capable of step-by-step reasoning to solve problems, while excelling in specific domains, incur significantly higher benchmarking costs than traditional models. Arti...

The Arc Prize Foundation, responsible for maintaining and managing the competition, last week revised its cost estimate for OpenAI's upcoming o3 inference AI model with a staggering adjustment—from an initial estimate of $3,000 per ARC-AGI task to $30,000. This price correction reveals that the operational costs of today's most complex AI models may be ten times higher than previously anticipated. While OpenAI has yet to announce an official pricing strategy for o3, or even officially release the model, the Arc Prize...

OpenAI has announced the launch of o1-pro, a new inference AI model within its developer API. OpenAI states that o1-pro leverages significantly more compute resources than its existing o1 model, aiming for consistently superior responses. However, this high-performance model is currently only available to a select group of developers – specifically, those who have spent at least $5 on OpenAI API services. Notably, o1-pro is significantly more expensive, costing ten times as much as the o1 model.
