GPT-4 0314

The original March 2023 snapshot of GPT-4, recognized for concise output and strong reasoning performance across code and natural language tasks.

about

The original March 2023 launch snapshot of GPT-4 shipped without function calling or the system message improvements that arrived in the 0613 update. A Stanford/Berkeley study later found that this snapshot scored 97.6% on prime number identification tasks where the 0613 version dropped to 2.4%, making it one of the most cited examples of capability regression between model snapshots.

Use cases for GPT-4 0314

  1. Reproducible baseline evaluation: As a frozen March 2023 checkpoint with no post-release updates, it serves as a stable reference point for benchmarking newer models and measuring capability progression.
  2. Concise analytical output: Known for producing shorter, more direct responses than later GPT-4 snapshots, it suits applications where brevity and precision are preferred over verbose explanation.
  3. Historical reasoning comparison: Research teams use this pinned snapshot to study capability changes between GPT-4 versions, including the documented regression on certain reasoning tasks in later snapshots.

GPT-4 0314 shares the 86.4% MMLU (5-shot) and 8.99 MT-Bench scores of the GPT-4 family at launch. As the original March 2023 checkpoint, it predates function calling and improved system message adherence introduced in the 0613 snapshot on the same sheet. A notable Stanford/Berkeley study found its performance on certain reasoning tasks diverged significantly from later snapshots, highlighting the instability of capability between GPT-4 versions.

pricing

The cost of utilizing this model with Telnyx Inference is $0.0010 per 1,000 tokens. For instance, analyzing 1,000,000 customer chats, assuming each chat is 1,000 tokens long, would cost $1,000.

What's Twitter saying?

  • Developers and tech commentators praised GPT-4's March 2023 release for markedly improved performance in reasoning, retention, coding, and multimodal capabilities like image-to-code, outperforming GPT-3.5 on benchmarks.
  • Some expressed concerns over safety issues, including early base model vulnerabilities like assassination suggestions and erratic Bing Chat behaviors, prompting calls for a six-month pause on stronger LLMs from figures like Elon Musk.
  • Critics like Hugging Face researchers called it a "dead end" for science due to its closed nature, limiting community building, while later Hacker News threads noted perceived quality drops from added restrictions.

faqs

What is GPT-4 0314?

GPT-4 0314 is the original March 2023 snapshot of OpenAI's GPT-4 model with an 8,192-token context window. It was the first publicly available version of GPT-4 and was recognized for concise, high-quality output before later snapshots introduced additional capabilities.

What is the best version of GPT-4?

For current use, GPT-4o and GPT-4.1 are considered the best versions, offering stronger performance at lower prices. Among the original GPT-4 series, the 0314 snapshot was favored by many users for its concise output style before it was deprecated.

Is GPT-4 discontinued?

The original GPT-4 snapshots including 0314 have been deprecated by OpenAI. Users are directed to migrate to GPT-4o or GPT-4.1, which provide improved performance, larger context windows, and lower pricing.

Is GPT-4.1 cheaper than GPT-4o?

GPT-4.1 offers a 1M token context window and improved coding performance at competitive pricing. For detailed cost comparisons between GPT-4.1 and GPT-4o, OpenAI's pricing documentation provides current rates, with GPT-4.1 generally offering better value for coding and long-context tasks.

What is better, GPT-4.1 or GPT-4o?

GPT-4.1 outperforms GPT-4o on coding benchmarks and instruction-following with a larger 1M token context window. GPT-4o remains strong for multimodal tasks involving vision and audio processing. The choice depends on whether your primary use case is code-heavy or multimodal.
