GPT-4.1 Now Available for ChatGPT Users
OpenAI has just made its latest and smartest AI models — GPT-4.1 and GPT-4.1 Mini — available to ChatGPT users, expanding access beyond just developers using APIs. This move brings powerful AI capabilities directly into the hands of everyday users.
What Makes GPT-4.1 Special?
The full GPT-4.1 model shines in complex tasks like coding, problem-solving, and instruction following. It has been rolled out to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team users, with access coming soon for Enterprise and Education customers.
Real Performance Gains:
- 54.6% on the SWE-bench Verified benchmark (for software engineering tasks)
- 38.3% on MultiChallenge (complex instructions)
- 72% on Video-MME (long-context, multimodal understanding)
GPT-4.1 Mini: Power to Free Users
OpenAI isn’t forgetting about free-tier users. GPT-4.1 Mini is set to replace the current GPT-4o Mini, offering:
- Faster responses (half the latency)
- 83% lower costs for OpenAI
- Better performance on intelligence tests compared to GPT-4o
Despite being a smaller model, GPT-4.1 Mini packs a serious punch in both speed and smarts.
Context Like Never Before
Both models support a massive 1 million token context window — meaning they can remember and reference more information in a single conversation. This makes them ideal for in-depth tasks, long documents, or detailed conversations.
