Exercise

Experimenting with More Powerful Models

Let's experiment with some of the different LLMs that OpenAI has to offer. All of these models have reasoning capabilities, but to make the differences between the base models clearer, keep the reasoning effort to 'minimal'.

In this exercise, you can enter any prompts you wish, but try to use the same one in each step to make a clearer comparison! If you're struggling for ideas, you can use the one provided.

Instructions 1/3

undefined XP
  • 1
    • Send a prompt to the "gpt-5-nano" model with reasoning effort reduced to 'minimal'.
  • 2
    • Send the same prompt to the gpt-5-mini model; again, with reasoning effort reduced to 'minimal'.
  • 3
    • Repeat your prompt one last time, this time, to the gpt-5 model.
