> incorrect, its an o3 finetune.

This is Open AI's fault (and literally every AI company is guilty of the same horrid naming schemes). Codex was an old model based on GPT-3, but then they reused the same name for both their Codex CLI and this Codex tool...

I mean, just look at the updates to their own blog post, I can see why people are confused.

Edit:

Google just did it too. "Gemini Ultra" is both a model (https://deepmind.google/models/gemini/ultra/) and their new top-tier subscription plan (a la Open AI's Pro plan). Why is this so difficult?



Confusing people is the best way to get them to throw their hands up, stop thinking critically, and start paying. all businesses do this. Mega corps have resources to enforce clarity, but they dont because theyre stupid? Ill eat my words if thats the case....


They should use one of their LLMs to get some better naming schemes - seriously LLMs are pretty good at this set of task


They absolutely cannot be worse than the humans involved here. gpt-4o followed by a series of o models so you have gpt-4o and o4? Wonderful.
