\nAs its name suggests, an AI\u2019s chain of thought (CoT) is a breakdown that shows how it arrived at a particular output. It more clearly shows the process where the LLMs \u201cbreak down\u201d the main task into smaller ones, following a logical sequence. However, ChatGPT had a problem with that: the \u201craw\u201d CoT data could be too complex. Considering that the company wants its AI platform to be as simple to understand as possible for most users, this is something that probably needed a change.
\nOpenAI\u2019s revamped \u201cchain of thought\u201d summary is a copy of DeepSeek-R1\u2019s
\nOpenAI seems to have found inspiration in DeepSeek to solve the problem. The firm has implemented a new approach where CoT is presented in the form of summaries of the reasoning process. This makes things much clearer, although it gets rid of some advanced data along the way. The new way of viewing CoT is present in the ChatGPT o3-mini\/o3-mini-high model. It is available to both free users and paid subscribers.
\nThe new way of displaying the chatbot\u2019s CoT is a clear commitment to accessibility. OpenAI claims that the change will \u201cmake it easier for people to understand how the model thinks.\u201d The firm says they implemented it because \u201cusers have told us that understanding how the model reasons through a response not only supports more informed decision-making but also helps build trust in its answers.\u201d
\nThat said, the new approach has not been without its critics. Users accustomed to getting raw CoT data are complaining that they are now only getting a simplified summary. Meanwhile, others are grateful that the thought process that led to the AI\u2019s \u200b\u200boutput is now much easier to understand. It might encourage more people to use the \u201cReasoning\u201d option that previously seemed intended for more experienced folks.
\nNew approach also makes CoT easier for non-English users to understand
\n\u201cWhile the model\u2019s raw CoT remains hidden as it\u2019s hard to understand, we\u2019ve found a balance: the model can think freely, and then it organizes those thoughts so that they are easy to read. To improve clarity and safety, we\u2019ve added an additional post-processing step where the model reviews the raw chain of thought, removing any unsafe content and then simplifies any complex ideas,\u201d stated OpenAI regarding the change. Another advantage of the new approach is that it \u201cenables non-English users to receive the CoT in their native language, creating a more accessible and friendly experience.\u201d
\nDeepSeep\u2019s AI models have been surrounded by controversy and concerns about potential risks since its launch. However, it seems that it also brought some good ideas that will help, in one way or another, to make artificial intelligence more accessible.
