I am pleased that the new O3-Mini model of Openai is now provided by the Microsoft Azure Openai service. O3-Mini provides new levels of efficiency, cost efficiency and reasoning ability based on the foundation of the O1 model.
We are happy to announce it Openai O3-Mini is now available in the Microsoft Azure Openai service.. O3-Mini adds significant cost efficiency in comparison with the improved O1-Mini, while providing new features such as inference control and tools, while providing similar or better response.
O3-Mini’s advanced features are a powerful tool for developers and companies that want to optimize AI applications by combining with efficiency gains.
With faster performance and lower waiting time O3-Mini is designed to handle complex reasoning workloads while maintaining efficiency.
O3-Mini’s new features
As the evolution of Openai O1-Mini, O3-Mini introduces some main features that improve AI reasoning and custom definitions.
- Inference effort parameterThe user can adjust the cognitive load of the model at a low, medium and high reasoning level to better control the response and waiting time.
- Structured outputThis model now supports JSON schema constraints, making it easier to generate well -defined structured outputs for automated workflows.
- Function and tool supportAs with the previous model, O3-Mini is perfectly integrated with function and external tools, ideal for AI-based automation.
- Developer message: “Role”: “Developer” attributes provide a more flexible and structured command processing by replacing the system message of the previous model.
- System message compatibility: Azure Openai service maps legacy system messages to developer messages to ensure smooth backward compatibility.
- Continuous strengths in coding, mathematics and scientific reasoning: O3-Mini further improves the functions of coding, mathematics and scientific reasoning, ensuring high performance in these important areas.
With this speed, control and cost efficiency, O3-Mini optimizes the Enterprise AI solution, allowing business to efficiently expand the AI application and maintain precision and reliability.
From O1-Mini to O3-Mini: What has changed?
O3-Mini is the latest reasoning model that has a notable difference compared to the O1 model announced in September. Both models share strengths in reasoning, but O3-Mini adds new features such as structured outputs and functions and tools, creating a production preparation model with greatly improved cost efficiency.
