OpenAI: GPT-4 Turbo

The OpenAI GPT-4 Turbo model, updated on April 8, 2024, with vision capabilities and training data up to December 2023, demonstrates a strong overall performance profile. It performs among the fastest models, ranking in the 63rd percentile for speed across six benchmarks. However, it tends to be positioned at premium pricing levels, ranking in the 9th percentile for cost. A significant strength is its exceptional reliability, consistently providing usable responses with few technical issues, achieving the 94th percentile. In terms of benchmark performance, GPT-4 Turbo excels in specific areas. It achieved perfect accuracy in both Email Classification and Ethics, notably being the most accurate model at its price point and speed in these categories. Its Instruction Following capabilities are also very strong, ranking in the 87th percentile for accuracy. While its Reasoning accuracy is solid at 70.3%, its Coding performance is moderate at 82.0%. A notable weakness appears in General Knowledge, where its accuracy of 78.5% places it in the 25th percentile, suggesting this is not its strongest domain. Overall, GPT-4 Turbo is a highly reliable and fast model, particularly adept at classification, ethical reasoning, and complex instruction following, though at a higher price point and with some room for improvement in general knowledge.
