The image of the strawberry plants along with his caption, "I love summer in the garden," has led many AI enthusiasts to view it as a hint towards the "Strawberry" project.

This post has prompted numerous passionate netizens on X to analyze the deeper meanings of the photo. For instance, the well-known AI information sharing account @kimmonismus commented, "This is a clue! Altman might be hinting that 'Strawberry' is coming soon!" Bindu Reddy, CEO of the open-source AI startup Abacus AI, also shared her view, believing it to be indeed a hint towards the "Strawberry" project.

Meanwhile, a new model named "Anonymous Chatbot" has recently appeared on the popular open-source platform lmsys. This model is considered potentially related to "Strawberry" and early users have reported that it outperforms GPT-4o and other competing models in terms of reasoning abilities. This has heightened expectations for the official release of "Strawberry."

Regarding the "Strawberry" project, previous media reports mentioned that OpenAI is developing a new AI model codenamed "Q*," which could bring breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence. The project aims to enable AI not only to answer questions but also to browse the internet autonomously for in-depth research. As competition between OpenAI and other companies intensifies, expectations for this new model are rising.

It is worth noting that it has been nearly 17 months since OpenAI's last major model release, GPT-4, although the company has introduced new models such as GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini during this period. However, OpenAI still faces significant pressure in competing with rivals like Anthropic, Google, and Meta.

OpenAI has yet to respond to Altman's social media activity, and everyone is eagerly awaiting more news about the "Strawberry" model.

Key Points:

🍓 Altman's social media post featuring strawberries has sparked discussions about the new "Strawberry" model.

🗣️ The newly emerged "Anonymous Chatbot" is believed to be related to the "Strawberry" project, with superior reasoning capabilities compared to existing GPT-4o models.
