Today, we’re launching three new models in the API: GPT‑4.1, GPT‑4.1 mini, and GPT‑4.1 nano. These models outperform GPT‑4o and GPT‑4o mini across the board, with major gains in coding and instruction following. They also have larger context windows—supporting up to 1 million tokens of context—and are able to better use that context with improved long-context comprehension. They feature a refreshed knowledge cutoff of June 2024.

MLPerf is the set of AI benchmarks you’ve heard of but might not (yet) fully comprehend. While I could find no unequivocal definition of the word itself – it was analogized as “SPEC for ML” in its May 2018 public debut – my handy AI assistant has a confident answer. It reads: “The name ‘MLPerf’ is a portmanteau derived from ‘ML’ for machine learning and ‘Perf’ for performance.”

In our digital world, encryption is the foundation of secure communication. It keeps our online transactions safe, protects sensitive information, and ensures our privacy remains private. However, as technology advances, so do the tools and techniques used by hackers. Cybercriminals are constantly finding new ways to break encryption, including using artificial intelligence, exposing vulnerabilities in systems we rely on daily. This growing threat underscores the need for stronger, more robust encryption methods to safeguard our data.
