OpenAI adds GPT-4.1 models to ChatGPT

OpenAI has announced that their GPT-4.1 and GPT-4.1 mini AI models will now be available in ChatGPT. The models were earlier accessible just through the OpenAI API post their launch a month ago. 

The AI firm will be moving out the GPT-4o mini AI model from ChatGPT. 

The GPT-4.1 model excels at coding and web development tasks while being faster than GPT-4o. 

“GPT-4.1 builds on the safety work and mitigations developed for GPT-4o. Across our standard safety evaluations, GPT-4.1 performs at parity with GPT-4o, showing that improvements can be delivered without introducing new safety risks,” Johannes Heidecke, OpenAI’s head of Safety Systems noted on X. 

He added that while GPT-4.1 was an improvement, it didn’t surpass “o3 in intelligence,” because it didn’t bring in new ways of interacting with AI models. 

Recently, on April 30, OpenAI removed GPT-4 from ChatGPT.
