The initial goal for GPT-4.5 was to create a model that is ten times smarter than GPT-4, which we ultimately achieved through a complex process.

OpenAI revealed GPT-4.5 as a model capable of reasoning and systematically thinking through complex problems, clearly surpassing GPT-4 in mathematics, coding, and logical tasks.

When we launched GPT-4.5, we were proud of the model, but users liked it much more than we anticipated, expressing that it was significantly better than GPT-4 in various ways.

GPT-4.5 is potentially more than 10 times the size of GPT-4, representing a step forward in both pre-training and post-training processes.

GPT-4.5 is OpenAI's largest and most humanlike model to date, representing a significant step in scaling up unsupervised learning and achieving a deeper understanding of the world and human experience.

We integrated some of the improvements from GPT-4.5 into our mainline GPT-4 model to enhance its collaborative capabilities.

A model that combines the knowledge and intuition of GPT-4.5 with advanced reasoning capabilities would be exceptionally powerful, making GPT-4.5 a crucial bridge towards that future.

In testing GPT-4.5, we found it has nuanced abilities that were unexpected, indicating it is more intelligent in ways that are hard to characterize ahead of time.

GPT-4's extensive knowledge comes from multiple copies running on different hardware, allowing them to share learning efficiently, unlike human brains.
