Welcome, Prohumans.

What an exciting time this is!

We are seeing new models and hundreds of new AI tools every month.

These new "Reasoning" models are significantly better than the classic GPT-4 models. They think before responding.

However, there's a catch: one of the models is mediocre in some tasks, while the other is exceptional.

Here’s what you’re going to explore this post:

🚨 The OpenAI models:

OpenAI just dropped two new models in ChatGPT:

• ChatGPT o1-preview

• ChatGPT o1-mini

So, which one's better?

Well, surprisingly, the big daddy ChatGPT o1-preview... kinda sucks. 😬

Why? It takes its sweet time responding (yep, too much overthinking and reasoning).

Meanwhile, the o1-mini model? It’s fast and sharp—delivering quick responses and accurate reasoning in a snap.

But don’t just take my word for it—here’s how you can use these models to get exceptional results:

ChatGPT o1-preview: When to Use It

Despite its slower responses, the ChatGPT o1-preview model shines in complex scenarios where deep reasoning is needed. Here’s when to turn to this beast:

• Advanced problem-solving: Perfect for tricky, multi-step problems where you need a detailed breakdown.

• In-depth research: If you want a thorough answer with multiple angles considered, o1-preview has you covered.

• Complicated prompts: When you’re feeding the model dense information, it excels at untangling and structuring answers.

⚡ Pro Tip: Patience is key. The model takes longer because it’s processing more data and doing deeper reasoning. Use it for complex tasks where speed isn’t a priority.

ChatGPT o1-mini: Quick, Smart, and Efficient

If you’re in a hurry and need fast, accurate responses, o1-mini is your new best friend. Here’s when to use it:

• Quick turnarounds: When time is of the essence and you need an answer now.

• Simple tasks: Perfect for straightforward questions that don’t require deep dives.

• Data-backed decisions: When you need factual, correct responses quickly, o1-mini has you covered.

⚡ Pro Tip: For content creation, brainstorming, or fast feedback, o1-mini delivers speedy results with minimal processing time.

Which Model Should You Use?

It all comes down to your needs:

• Go with o1-preview when you need thoughtful, detailed reasoning and have time to wait for it.

• Choose o1-mini for faster, more direct responses when speed is crucial.

Both models have their strengths—use them wisely, and you’ll get the most out of each.
