  Nine days after OpenAI launched a research preview of GPT-4.5, the model has stirred debate among AI enthusiasts, researchers, and subscribers. While some view it as a significant leap, others argue the high cost doesn’t justify the performance gains.

  Performance & Key Features

  1. Accuracy & Naturalness

  • 62.5% Simple QA accuracy (improved over GPT-4)
  • 37.1% hallucination rate (still a concern)
  • Better intent understanding & persuasion capabilities

  2. Subscription Pricing & Token Costs

  • Pro plan: $200/month
  • Plus plan: $20/month
  • Token costs: $75 per 1M input tokens, $150 per 1M output tokens

  AI Experts Put GPT-4.5 to the Test

  Andrej Karpathy, former AI Director at Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and a co-founder of OpenAI, compared GPT-4 vs. GPT-4.5 in an experiment. His takeaway? AI improvements are becoming more subtle over time, making it harder to see major differences between versions.
