OpenAI’s 12 Days of OpenAI: The Final Day
The Wait is Over: o3 Model Unveiled
OpenAI has been teasing its 12 Days of OpenAI campaign, and the final day has finally arrived. As part of this holiday-themed campaign, OpenAI has been livestreaming new demos and product launches every day. The anticipation has been building, and today, OpenAI is rumored to be dropping an o3 model.
What is o3?
The o3 model is an improved version of OpenAI’s o1 family models, which were unveiled in September. These models have improved reasoning capabilities, allowing them to work through more complex science, coding, and math problems. However, one of the downsides of these models is that they take longer to process because they "think before they speak." This could be a major issue for users who need quick responses.
Why the Name o3?
According to a report from The Information, OpenAI is skipping the o2 model due to potential copyright conflicts with O2, a British telecommunications service provider. This means that OpenAI will jump straight to o3, which is expected to be an even more advanced version of the o1 model.
What Can We Expect from o3?
Although details on what the o3 model can do have not been revealed, it is expected to be an improved version of the o1 model in every way. This means that users can expect even more advanced reasoning capabilities and likely quicker speeds. The full version of o1 was just launched last week for all ChatGPT Plus and now Pro users, and it is possible that accessibility to the full version of o1 expands with the release of o3.
How to Watch the Livestream
To watch the final day of the live streams, you can tune into OpenAI’s 12 Days of OpenAI page. The livestream will start at approximately 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET.

Conclusion
The wait is finally over, and OpenAI has unveiled its o3 model. This improved version of the o1 model is expected to have even more advanced reasoning capabilities and quicker speeds. With the full version of o1 just launched last week, users can expect even more from OpenAI’s AI technology.
