OpenAI has launched O3 PRO for ChatGPT, marking a significant advancement in both performance and cost-efficiency for its reasoning models. This new model, O3-Pro, is now accessible through the OpenAI API and the Pro plan, priced at $200 per month. The company highlights substantial improvements with O3 PRO and has also dropped the price of its previous o3 model by 80%. This strategic move aims to provide users with more powerful and affordable AI capabilities, challenging competitors in the AI model market and expanding the boundaries of reasoning.

The O3-Pro model is set to offer enhanced raw reasoning capabilities, but early reviews suggest mixed results when compared to competing models like Claude 4 Opus and Gemini 2.5 Pro. While some tests indicate that Claude 4 Opus currently excels in prompt following, output quality, and understanding user intentions, Gemini 2.5 Pro is considered the most economical option with a superior price-to-performance ratio. Initial assessments suggest that O3-Pro might not be worth the higher cost unless the user's primary interest lies in research applications.

The launch of O3-Pro coincides with other strategic moves by OpenAI, including consolidating its public sector AI products under the "OpenAI for Government" banner, including ChatGPT Gov. OpenAI has also secured a $200 million contract with the U.S. Department of Defense to explore AI applications in administration and security. Despite these advancements, OpenAI is also navigating challenges, such as the planned deprecation of GPT-4.5 Preview in the API, which has caused frustration among developers who relied on the model for their applications and workflows.
