OpenAI Prepares to Launch “o3‑Pro” for Power Users

OpenAI is preparing to launch a new AI model called o3 Pro, aimed at professional users. While there has been no official announcement yet, some customers have already received early notifications about the upcoming release, according to a LinkedIn post by Ty Millard.

The o3 Pro model is expected to offer more advanced capabilities than earlier versions, with fewer usage limits and a stronger focus on professional and technical tasks. It is likely to include unlimited access for Pro-tier subscribers, improved performance on complex problems, and access to advanced tools such as code execution and internet browsing.

This new version follows the recent release of o3 mini, which was made available to Plus and Pro users, although with usage restrictions for most. The o3 Pro model appears to be positioned as the full-strength version of the o3 series.

Excitement is growing in the AI community, with many users on platforms like Reddit voicing both anticipation and frustration over the wait. Some have noted that they are considering cancelling subscriptions due to the delay in receiving more powerful tools.

While OpenAI has not confirmed an exact release date, signs point to a release within the next day or two, with some users claiming it has already rolled out. CHATGPT o3-Pro is likely going to excel in all benchmarks. Sam Altman has claimed that OpenAI knows the path to build AGI, perhaps this is the beginning.
