- OpenAI is secretly pushing ahead with a cutting-edge project called “Strawberry” that aims to improve the reasoning capabilities of AI.
- The development of the Strawberry project undoubtedly marks a significant step forward for AI in simulating human reasoning capabilities.
OUR TAKE
By focusing on improving the reasoning capabilities of AI models, the Strawberry project is expected to address the limitations of current AI technology in common sense problems and complex logical judgments, enabling AI to more accurately understand the world, predict the future, and effectively solve challenging problems.

What happened
Open AI, the creator of ChatGPT, is secretly pushing ahead with a cutting-edge project called Strawberry.
When asked about its details, a spokesperson for OpenAI stated that their vision is to promote AI models that can see and understand the world as deeply as humans do and strongly believed that the reasoning capabilities of AI systems will improve significantly over time.
The Strawberry project, formerly known internally as Q*, is a major breakthrough effort within OpenAI.
Earlier this year, the company proudly announced that Q* demonstrated its technical prowess by successfully solving a series of extremely complex scientific and mathematical problems that are difficult to reach even with current commercial AI models.
With Strawberry project, OpenAI expects to further significantly improve the reasoning capabilities of its AI models. The project uses a unique pre-training strategy that focuses on carefully cultivating AI models on extremely large data sets in order to achieve more accurate and in-depth understanding.
Although the specific technical details of “Strawberry” are still highly confidential, its development undoubtedly marks an important progress in artificial intelligence to simulate human reasoning ability.

Why it’s important
According to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, the core of future development in the field of artificial intelligence is the improvement of reasoning ability. He firmly believes that significant progress in this field will be the key to achieving artificial intelligence to the level of human and even superhuman intelligence.
AI experts reach an agreement that enhanced reasoning means building an intelligent model that can plan ahead, accurately reflect the laws of the physical world, and effectively solve complex multi-step problems.
This model will not be limited to language processing, but can be applied to a wide range of fields, from driving major scientific discoveries to automated planning and building innovative software applications, the potential is unestimable.
Therefore, developing Strawberry project is expected to improve the reasoning ability of AI models. This could be seen as the key to unlocking their potential capabilities and is an important driving force to promote the development of AI to a higher level.
