Chat GPT developer Open AI is developing a new kind of reasoning AI models with the project name “Strawberry” that can be used for research, according to a report by Reuters. Strawberry was apparently earlier known by the name “Q” and would be considered a breakthrough within Open AI.
The plan is for the new Strawberry models to not only be able to generate answers based on instructions, but also to be able to plan ahead by navigating the internet independently and reliably perform what Open AI calls “deep research.”
How Strawberry works under the hood remains unclear; it is also unknown how long the technology may be from completion. In a comment to Reuters, an OpenAI spokesperson says continued research into new AI opportunities is ongoing within the industry. However, the spokesperson did not say anything specific about Strawberry in particular.
