GPT-4o (2024-11-20)

GPT-4o (November 2024 release) is OpenAI's multimodal large language model that processes text and images with a 128K token context window.

Strengths

Handles complex reasoning tasks and multimodal input across text and images with broad capability across domains.

Best for

General-purpose applications requiring both text and image understanding where reasoning quality matters more than inference speed.

Limitations

Newer reasoning models like o1-pro and o3 Mini are better suited for complex problem-solving; for lightweight tasks, GPT-4o-mini offers lower latency.
