Hold onto your keyboards, tech lovers! OpenAI just dropped its new GPT-4o mini—a budget-friendly AI model that’s 60% cheaper than its predecessor while packing a serious punch. 💥 Priced at 15 cents per million input tokens, this ‘mini’ is anything but small on brains, scoring 82% on the MMLU benchmark (that’s higher than Google’s Gemini Flash and Claude Haiku!).
Why care? 🤔 Smaller models like this mean startups and indie devs can finally jump into AI without draining their wallets. Plus, it’s eco-friendly—less energy, more innovation. 🌱 And guess what? Free ChatGPT users get access today, with Enterprise folks joining next week!
Future upgrades? Think multimodal magic: text, images, video, and audio all in one. 🎨📹 OpenAI’s basically building the Swiss Army knife of AI. 🔧
With Meta and Google racing to dominate AI, this move keeps OpenAI in the spotlight. 💡 For young entrepreneurs and tech newbies? It’s game on. 🎮
