OpenAI unveils enhanced o1-pro AI model

OpenAI has introduced a more advanced version of its o1 “reasoning” AI model, called o1-pro, in its developer API. According to OpenAI, o1-pro uses more computing than o1 to provide “consistently better responses.” Moreover, it is only available to select developers — those who’ve spent at least $5 on OpenAI API services — and it’s pricey. Very pricey.

Microsoft claims quantum-computing breakthrough but some physicists are sceptical

Microsoft has announced that it has created the first ‘topological qubits’ — a way of storing quantum information that the firm hopes will underpin a new generation of quantum computers. Machines based on topology are expected to be easier to build at scale than competing technologies, because they should better protect the information from noise. But some researchers are sceptical of the company’s claims.
