OpenAI recently unveiled anew algorithm, o1, which the company calls its reasoning model.
However, the algorithm appears to think not just in English but in several different languages.
Thats where many people noticed that the LLM had begun to incorporate Mandarin and Cantonese into its process.
Why did o1 pro randomly start thinking in Chinese?asked Rishab Jain, via X.
