Reading the o1 announcement you could have been saying the same thing a year ago yet it's worse than Claude in practice and if it was all that's available - I wouldn't even use it if it was free - it's that bad.

If OpenAI has demonstrated one thing is that they are a hype production machine and they are probably getting ready for next round of investment. I wouldn't be surprised if this model was equally useless as o1 when you factor in performance and price.

At this point they are completely untrustworthy and untill something lands publicly for me to test it's safe to ignore their PR as complete BS.

For most tasks - but not all. I normally paste my prompt in both and while Claude is generally superior in most aspects, there are tasks at which o1 performed slightly better.
