o1-preview and o1-mini now available in C-LARA
I have installed support for the two new OpenAI models o1-preview and o1-mini in C-LARA. They are based on Chain-of-Thought reasoning trained using reinforcement learning, and appear to be considerably smarter than gpt-4o. Y0u can select them from the Edit configuration information screen in the usual way: Based on some preliminary testing, I would not Continue reading

New GPT-4 model available in C-LARA
OpenAI released a new version of GPT-4o last month, the catchily titled gpt-4o-2024-08-06; it is considerably cheaper to use than standard GPT-4o., details here.

We have made good progress on both adaptation of the reinforcement learning/Chain of Thought idea to C-LARA and support for non-AI languages. A version of the Palgrave Encyclopaedia article has been published as a ResearchGate preprint. Priority list Reinforcement learning and Chain of Thought for MWEs. We have a first version of the core framework in Continue reading
