GPT-4o Mini: OpenAI’s Most Cost-Efficient Small Model

OpenAI is dedicated to maximising the accessibility of intelligence. OpenAI is pleased to present the GPT-4o mini, their most affordable little variant. Because GPT-4o mini makes intelligence considerably more affordable, OpenAI anticipate that it will greatly increase the breadth of applications produced using  AI. GPT-4o mini beats GPT-4 on conversation preferences in the LMSYS leaderboard, scoring 82% on MMLU at the moment (opens in a new window). It is priced at 15 cents per million input tokens and 60 cents per million output tokens, which is more than 60% less than GPT-3.5 Turbo and an order of magnitude more affordable than prior frontier models.

GPT-4o mini’s low cost and latency enable a wide range of applications, including those that call multiple APIs, chain or parallelize multiple model calls, pass a large amount of context to the model (such as the entire code base or conversation history), or engage with customers via quick, real-time text responses (e.g., customer support chatbots).

The GPT-4o mini currently supports text and vision inputs and outputs through the API; support for image, text, video, and audio inputs and outputs will be added later. The model supports up to 16K output tokens per request, has a context window of 128K tokens, and has knowledge through October 2023. It is now even more economical to handle non-English text because of the enhanced tokenizer that GPT-4o shared.

A little model with superior multimodal reasoning and textual intelligence

GPT-4o mini supports the same range of languages as GPT-4o and outperforms GPT-3.5 Turbo and other small models on academic benchmarks in textual intelligence and multimodal reasoning. Additionally, it shows better long-context performance than GPT-3.5 Turbo and excellent function calling speed, allowing developers to create applications that retrieve data or interact with external systems.

GPT-4o mini has been assessed using a number of important benchmarks.

Tasks incorporating both text and vision reasoning: GPT-4o mini outperforms other compact models with a score of 82.0% on MMLU, a benchmark for textual intelligence and reasoning, compared to 77.9% for Gemini Flash and 73.8% for Claude Haiku.

Proficiency in math and coding: The GPT-4o mini outperforms earlier tiny models available on the market in activities including mathematical reasoning and coding. GPT-4o mini earned 87.0% on the MGSM, a test of math thinking, compared to 75.5% for Gemini Flash and 71.7% for Claude Haiku. In terms of coding performance, GPT-4o mini scored 87.2% on HumanEval, while Gemini Flash and Claude Haiku scored 71.5% and 75.9%, respectively.

Multimodal reasoning: The GPT-4o mini scored 59.4% on the Multimodal Reasoning Measure (MMMU), as opposed to 56.1% for Gemini Flash and 50.2% for Claude Haiku, demonstrating good performance in this domain.

OpenAI collaborated with a few reliable partners as part of their model building approach to gain a deeper understanding of the capabilities and constraints of GPT-4o mini. Companies like Ramp(opens in a new window) and Superhuman(opens in a new window), with whom they collaborated, discovered that GPT-4o mini outperformed GPT-3.5 Turbo in tasks like extracting structured data from receipt files and producing excellent email responses when given thread history.

Integrated safety precautions

OpenAI models are constructed with safety in mind from the start, and it is reinforced at every stage of the development process. Pre-training involves filtering out (opens in a new window) content that they do not want their models to encounter or produce, including spam, hate speech, adult content, and websites that primarily collect personal data. In order to increase the precision and dependability of the models’ answers, OpenAI use post-training approaches like reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to align the model’s behaviour to their policies.

The safety mitigations that GPT-4o mini has in place are identical to those of GPT-4o, which they thoroughly examined using both automated and human reviews in accordance with their preparedness framework and their voluntary commitments. OpenAI tested GPT-4o with over 70 outside experts in social psychology and disinformation to find potential dangers. OpenAI have resolved these risks and will provide more information in the upcoming GPT-4o system card and Preparedness scorecard. These expert assessments have yielded insights that have enhanced the safety of GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini.

Based on these discoveries, OpenAI groups additionally sought to enhance GPT-4o mini’s safety by implementing fresh methods that were influenced by their study. The first model to use their instruction hierarchy(opens in a new window) technique is the GPT-4o mini in the API. This technique helps to strengthen the model’s defence against system prompt extractions, jailbreaks, and prompt injections. As a result, the model responds more consistently and is safer to use in large-scale applications.

As new hazards are discovered, OpenAI will keep an eye on how GPT-4o mini is being used and work to make the model safer.

Accessibility and cost

As a text and vision model, GPT-4o mini is now accessible through the Assistants API, Chat Completions API, and Batch API. The cost to developers is 15 cents for every 1 million input tokens and 60 cents for every 1 million output tokens, or around 2500 pages in a typical book. In the upcoming days, OpenAI want to launch GPT-4o mini fine-tuning.

GPT-3.5 will no longer be available to Free, Plus, and Team users in ChatGPT; instead, they will be able to access GPT-4o mini. In keeping with OpenAI goal of ensuring that everyone can benefit from  artificial intelligence, enterprise users will also have access starting next week.

Next Steps

In recent years, there have been notable breakthroughs in  artificial intelligence along with significant cost savings. For instance, since the introduction of the less capable text-davinci-003 model in 2022, the cost per token of the GPT-4o mini has decreased by 99%. OpenAI is determined to keep cutting expenses and improving model capabilities in this direction.

In the future, models should be readily included into all websites and applications. Developers may now more effectively and economically create and expand robust  AI applications thanks to GPT-4o mini. OpenAI is thrilled to be leading the way as  AI becomes more dependable, approachable, and integrated into their everyday digital interactions.
