GPT-4.1 models are rolling out to ChatGPT

OpenAI shared an X post announcing the rollout of GPT-4.1 and GPT-4.1 mini to ChatGPT. The post emphasised the premium model, GPT-4.1, by highlighting its coding tasks and instruction-following capabilities. The post said, “It’s faster, it’s a great alternative to OpenAI o3 & o4-mini for everyday coding needs.” The GPT-4.1 is available on ChatGPT to paid users, which includes ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team users. This AI model can be leveraged by software developers and coding enthusiasts to develop web apps due to its smarter and faster capabilities than the previous generation model.

On the other hand, the GPT-4.1 mini will be rolled out to both free and paid ChatGPT users as a default AI model for everyday use. According to OpenAI’s blog post, it is a small AI model, but brings greater advancement in comparison to the current GPT-4o mini model. This model can also be utilised for coding, daily queries, follow-up queries, and other complex tasks. Both models can process 1 million context tokens, making them more reliable than GPT‑4o models.

Furthermore, with GPT-4.1 models, ChatGPT users can access more AI models in the dropdown menu. Therefore, they can select a preferred AI model based on the complexity of their desired tasks. To use GPT-4.1, users will have to opt for the subscription plan that starts from $20 per month to $200 per month. You can also opt for the ChatGPT Team subscription, which costs $25 per month for a single user, and it can include two or more users as well.
