OpenAI’s new GPT-4.1 AI models focus on coding
OpenAI has launched a new family of models called GPT-4.1. They focus on coding, and are exclusively available through the company's API.
The company asserts its future models will be able to program entire apps end-to-end, handling aspects such as quality assurance, bug testing, and documentation writing. “We’ve optimized GPT-4.1 for real-world use based on direct feedback to improve in areas that developers care most about: frontend coding, making fewer extraneous edits, following formats reliably, adhering to response structure and ordering, consistent tool usage, and more,” an OpenAI spokesperson told TechCrunch via email. While GPT-4.1 scores reasonably well on benchmarks and has a more recent “knowledge cutoff,” giving it a better frame of reference for current events (up to June 2024), it’s important to keep in mind that even some of the best models today struggle with tasks that wouldn’t trip up experts.
