Does anyone actually have access to this? It says available for pro users on the website today - I have pro via my employer but see no "deep research" option in the message composer.

Two different people I know with pro subscriptions report not having access yet.

OpenAI has a deep bench. I bet they pushed this out to change the narrative about deepseek

Also named specifically to muddle the SEO for the term "deep." Nothing that OpenAI does is unintentional.

Oh God, this is such an astute observation. I think it worked so well on me that I didn't even think about the "deep" portion initially. Goes to show how effective these things are psychologically.

This is terrifying. Even though they acknowledge the issues with hallucinations/errors, that is going to be completely overlooked by everyone using this, and then injecting the outputs into their own powerpoints. Management Consulting was bad enough before the ability to mass produce these graphs and stats on a whim. At least there was some understanding behind the scenes of where the numbers came from, and sources w…

Not sure if people picked up on it, but this is being powered by the unreleased o3 model. Which might explain why it leaps ahead in benchmarks considerably and aligns with the claims o3 is too expensive to release publicly. Seems to be quite an impressive model and the leading out of Google, DeepSeek and Perplexity.

Has anyone here tried it out yet?

It's more likely this is a response to Gemini Deep Research released in December

If I understood the graphs correctly, it only achieves 20% pass rate on their internal tests. So I have to wait 30min and pay a lot of money just to sift through walls of most likely incorrect text? Unless the possibility of hallucinations is negligible, this is just way too much content to review at once. The process probably needs to be a lot more iterative.

Only if you are asking questions at the level of a cutting edge benchmark

This is one of the actual questions:

Does the naming scheme they've used for models so far suggest that they care about SEO?

Feels like only a matter of time before these crawlers are blocked from large swathes of the internet. I understand that they’re already prohibited from Reddit and YouTube. If that spreads, this approach might be in trouble.

I doubt those crawler rules will be honoured for long.

I wouldn’t even be surprised if a law is passed requiring sites to provide equal access to humans whether accessed directly or via these models.

It’s too important an innovation to stall, especially considering the US’s competitors (China) won’t respect robots.txt either.
