If we talk about a median well-educated human, o1 likely passes the bar. Quite a few tests of reasoning suggests that’s the case. An example: “Preprint out today that tests o1-preview's medical reasoning experiments against a baseline of 100s of clinicians. In this case the title says it all: Superhuman performance of a large language model on the reasoning tasks of a physician Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.10849”. — Adam Rodman, a co-author of the paper https://x.com/AdamRodmanMD/status/186902305691786464 —- Have you tried using o1 with a variety of problems?

> so don’t ask a language model to diagnose your medical condition (o1-preview) LLMs show promise in clinical reasoning but fall short in probabilistic tasks, underscoring why AI shouldn't replace doctors for diagnosis just yet.
