Part 5/12:
The development of Orion is rooted in innovative data techniques. Building on the internal model dubbed “Strawberry”—used to generate synthetic data—OpenAI aims to generate tailored training data that enables the model to learn more efficiently and safely. Rather than solely relying on scraping the internet for data, OpenAI is creating a rich, curated dataset to enhance Orion’s intelligence.
The model’s raw power and synthetic training data are seen as essential ingredients in the quest for AGI. The goal is for Orion not just to excel at language but to think, reason, and understand context at near-human levels. This shift towards a more autonomous, reasoning AI reflects OpenAI’s long-term vision of “digital godlike” capabilities.
