GPT-4o (Mar 2025)
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

Size
How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.
- Training data
- tokens
Training compute
The arithmetic performed to train the model, measured in floating-point operations. It is a measure of what the training run cost, not of how fast the finished model answers you.
- How it was established
- Benchmarks
Availability
Whether you can obtain the model and run it on your own hardware, which is what decides if any of the graphics-card figures on this page apply.

How it is classified
Labels the source dataset applies when tracking notable models, and how confident it is in the entry.
- Frontier model
- Yes
- Likely above 10²³ FLOP
- Yes
- Why it is tracked
- SOTA improvement,Significant use
- Record confidence
- Speculative
Outperforms GPT-4 Turbo and other models on text and especially on multimodal benchmarks, such as MMLU, GPQA, HumanEval, MMMU, etc See Model Evaluations: https://openai.com/index/hello-gpt-4o/ GPT-4o is now the default model in ChatGPT, so it's one of the most widely used models.

What the numbers mean
About this model
GPT-4o (Mar 2025) was published by OpenAI, in the country recorded as United States of America, during March 2025. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Language, Audio, Speech, Vision, and is recorded as performing the task of chat, Image generation, Audio generation, Vision-language generation, Table tasks, Language modeling/generation, Question answering, Speech recognition (ASR), Speech-to-text.
It builds on GPT-4o (Jan 2025). Most models at this scale are adapted from an existing base rather than built from nothing.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
How it was trained
The reason it appears in this catalogue at all: sOTA improvement,Significant use.
Answers
GPT-4o (Mar 2025) — common questions
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— who created it?
It was published by OpenAI, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— when was it released?
It was published in March 2025.
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Multimodal, Language, Audio, Speech, Vision, and is recorded as handling the task of chat, Image generation, Audio generation, Vision-language generation, Table tasks, Language modeling/generation, Question answering, Speech recognition (ASR), Speech-to-text. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.
GPT-4o (Mar 2025)— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
