Our CEO, Tim Cakir, kicked off the LinkedIn Live the promise to make sense of the OpenAI ChatGPT naming soup.

He started with GPT-4o, calling it the 70% solution for everyday business tasks. From summarizing calls to writing emails and meeting notes, it’s the go-to for most content needs. But, as Tim reminded us: don’t stay on default - there’s more power under the hood.

Next up: GPT-4.1. Think of it as the developer’s best friend - a reliable workhorse for generating, refactoring, and working with frameworks like React, now with the bonus of a million-token memory. The Mini variant? Perfect for blazing-fast automations and task shortcuts.

When it came to creative tone, Tim put GPT-4.5 to the test - rewriting the same LinkedIn post through 4.0 and 4.5. The result? A smoother, more conversational flow that’s ideal for brand voice or customer-facing copy.

Then came the reasoning powerhouses:

• o4-mini: built for fast technical logic

• o4-mini-high: deeper analytical thinking

Followed by o3 and o3-Pro. They excel at multi-step reasoning, visual interpretation, and “genius-level” insights - ideal when quality is more important than speed.

To show how it all fits together, Tim built a landing page live:

• o3 for structure

• GPT-4o for drafting

• GPT-4.5 for refining tone

Throughout, he shared his top principle: watch the reasoning, edit the prompts, and compare outputs - because that’s how you actually get smarter with AI.

🎯 The big takeaway? A clear, no-fluff decision framework for using the right model at the right moment - plus real excitement for what’s next in the GPT-5 era.
