OpenAI o1 Pro and OpenAI o1 are much better at math.
OpenAI o1 Pro mode seems to be using OpenAI o1 but running questions multiple times to get better answers.
OpenAI GPT 5 training has not gone smoothly according to Kai-fu Lee.

Kai-Fu Lee Assessment of OpenAI
OpenAI still has many valuable technologies it hasn’t unveiled. We must not underestimate it. Its GPT-5 training hasn’t gone smoothly, but to secure funding, it released o1. OpenAI still holds many cards and isn’t in a rush to play them. Each time it unveils a new card, global tech companies, including those in China, observe closely, speculate, and develop competing solutions. Even if they can’t match it entirely, they can achieve 80-90% parity. Because of this, OpenAI doesn’t want to exhaust its cards prematurely. It plans to save them for when AGI seems within reach and can confidently deploy them.
…the challenges GPT-5 has faced during training suggest that the prediction of achieving AGI in three years might be overly optimistic. GPT-5 was originally supposed to be released by now, but at this rate, even if it does launch, it won’t be for another six months [May 2025].

“the prediction of achieving AGI in three years might be overly optimistic”
Truth is hard to accept right mr Wang ?
That is not truth. That is a statement by Kai-Fu Lee. It is a qualified statement. “might be”.
The statement of slippage of GPT5 to May or later is made with more certainty.
