OpenAI Unveils GPT-4.1: Cheaper, More Powerful, and More Expandable

OpenAI has taken another step in the field of artificial intelligence - the successor to GPT-4, GPT-4.1, has been presented. The updated model has been improved in all aspects - encoding, compliance with instructions, accurate separation of information in a long context.

This is considered a major achievement not only from a technical point of view, but also from a price and convenience point of view.

Context expanded: up to 1 million tokens
The GPT-4.1 model:

✅ Can process 1 million context tokens (text, images, videos, etc.);
✅ This is 8 times more than the previous model's limit of 128,000 tokens.

According to OpenAI, it:
- Very effective for discussions in a long context;
- Increases the ability to ignore "noisy" data.

Mini and Nano: lightweight and affordable versions
With GPT‑4.1:

🔹 GPT‑4.1 Mini - a lighter and more versatile model;
🔹 GPT‑4.1 Nano - presented as the smallest, fastest and most affordable option.

These models are energy and resource-efficient, and are also adapted to work on mobile devices.

What are the results?
GPT‑4.1:

✅ Successfully completed 54.6% of tasks in the SWE-Bench benchmark;
✅ 26% cheaper compared to GPT-4o;
✅ Reaction time - low latency and high stability.

GPT-4 and 4.5 are being phased out, while 5 is delayed
According to OpenAI:

🗓 GPT-4 will be released on April 30,
🗓 GPT-4.5 will be released on July 14.

According to the company, GPT-4.1 will easily replace them.

At the same time, the development of GPT-5 has been delayed by several months - due to the complexity of integrating all the functions.

Quality and convenience are coming together in artificial intelligence
GPT-4.1 is not just another model, but OpenAI's attempt to combine technology, convenience and cost-effectiveness.

It is expected to become a new standard among developers and content creators in a short time. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
