The prevalence of chinese training datasets has likely biased the model incorrectly. The model is still intelligent enough to flag this as a gap in its own abilities.

Here is an example of Reasonix resuming a feature in a project managed by Codex thus far.

It's not just broken for ** content, it's broken for everything. The error from earlier said to switch … ⋯ 2 lines elided I need to be honest with the user that `web_search` is fundamentally non-functional regardless of what query I try. Let me clearly communicate this and suggest alternatives.

‹ reply 198 tok · 92 t/s v4-flash I'm sorry — I've now tried multiple queries across multiple attempts this session, and the web_search tool is fundamentally broken regardless of query phrasing. Every single query returns either Chinese dictionary entries, Kick streamers, YouTube homepages, or Swiss restaurants. Nothing even remotely related to the search terms.

The error message from the tool itself says:

  "switch engine with /search-engine bing|searxng|metaso|tavily|perplexity|exa"

This is a user-side setting — I can't change it with any tool I have. Could you run this in chat?

/search-engine bing

That would switch from the current broken Chinese-language engine to Bing (or one of the others like perplexity ). Once that's done, I'll batch-search all 322 centers efficiently — the web_search tool is the fastest way to do this since I can search multiple names in parallel.

Hi, I looked at the regional centre-dependent EB5 process but pivoted to the EB5 direct investment route. I have now bootstrapped a single food truck, and we are looking forward to launch it next month. Can such kind of business setup qualify me for O1 instead ? At my day job, I am a software manager in FAANG.

yes, agree to the last lines about requesting data under GDPR. I would go further and sue the company collecting data against my knowledge

Context Window is 32k (present in the blog). I suppose number of Params, MOE setup are intentionally not revealed. Numbers on well known benchmarks and comparison with Google and Open AI is also published later in the blog.

A caveat there is, proactive dive and save is reserved for high performers who are seen as a flight risk Reactive dive and save is for anybody who can show a competing offer.
