OpenAI is advancing its research in artificial intelligence by releasing its next generation of reasoning models, specifically the o3-mini. In addition to this release, OpenAI is utilizing the subreddit r/ChangeMyView to evaluate the persuasive capabilities of its AI models. The company collects user posts from this subreddit and tasks its AI to generate replies aimed at changing the original poster's viewpoint. This method allows OpenAI to assess how effectively its AI can engage in persuasion by comparing its responses to popular Reddit posts.
