OpenAI

GPT-4o mini: 20x cheaper yet as performant as GPT-4o

⇧ 14,921 Likes

What's New

OpenAI has introduced GPT-4o mini, a cost-efficient small AI model. This model aims to make AI more accessible by reducing costs while maintaining high performance.


GPT-4o mini costs 15 cents per million input tokens and 60 cents per million output tokens, making it 20 times cheaper while providing the same performance as GPT-4o.


GPT-4o mini supports text and vision in the API
The model has a 128K token context window and supports up to 16K output tokens per request. It leverages an improved tokenizer for more cost-effective handling of non-English text. Future updates will include support for video and audio inputs and outputs.


Early testing shows GPT-4o mini's practical applications
The model performs better than GPT-3.5 Turbo in extracting structured data and generating high-quality email responses. Developers can handle tasks that involve chaining or parallelizing multiple model calls, passing a large volume of context, or providing real-time text responses.


Performance metrics highlight GPT-4o mini's capabilities

  • MMLU: Scores 82%, surpassing Gemini Flash (77.9%) and Claude Haiku (73.8%).
  • MGSM: Scores 87% in math reasoning, outperforming Gemini Flash (75.5%) and Claude Haiku (71.7%).

  • HumanEval: Achieves 87.2% in coding performance, compared to Gemini Flash (71.5%) and Claude Haiku (75.9%).

  • MMMU: Scores 59.4% in multimodal reasoning, higher than Gemini Flash (56.1%) and Claude Haiku (50.2%).

Availability
Developers can access GPT-4o mini via the Assistants API, Chat Completions API, and Batch API. Free, Plus, and Team users in ChatGPT can use it immediately, with Enterprise access starting next week.
