The Facts

  • The Sam Altman-led company OpenAI reportedly plans to launch Strawberry, a reasoning-focused artificial intelligence model, in the next two weeks — earlier than previously anticipated.

  • A part of ChatGPT, Strawberry would reportedly stand apart with its ability to "think" before responding to prompts instead of churning out instant replies.


The Spin

Narrative A

OpenAI’s Strawberry AI, unlike existing models, is rumored to possess groundbreaking capabilities, including autonomous web research, enhanced mathematical problem-solving, and superior logical reasoning. This would bring AI closer to human-like cognition. This hints at a significant leap in AI technology and a transformative development in the field.

Narrative B

Elon Musk’s warnings about OpenAI’s trajectory are becoming a reality with the secretive Strawberry model. It is pushing AI toward advanced human-level reasoning and autonomous decision-making — this could pose a significant threat to humanity. Despite internal concerns and Musk's earlier legal actions, OpenAI is rapidly advancing towards AGI without giving a thought to its potentially dangerous implications.
