Additionally, OpenAI introduced the o4-mini-high model, which was made available exclusively to paid-tier ChatGPT users. The high model was a slower model which had a higher reasoning effort to produce more accurate responses.[5]
Unlike earlier models, o4-mini is capable of processing both text and images. It also allows to perform tasks like analyzing whiteboard sketches during its "chain-of-thought" phase.[6]
