GPT-4o is an autoregressive omni model that accepts as input any combination of text, audio, image, and video, and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs. It's trained end-to-end across text, vision, and audio, meaning all inputs and outputs are processed by the same neural network. GPT-4o can respond to audio inputs in as little as 232 milliseconds, with an average of 320 milliseconds, which is similar to human response time in conversation. It matches GPT-4 Turbo performance on text in English and code, with significant improvement on text in non-English languages, while also being much faster and 50\% cheaper in the API. GPT-4o is especially better at vision and audio understanding compared to existing models. In line with our commitment to building AI safely and consistent with our voluntary commitments to the White House, we are sharing the GPT-4o System Card, which includes our Preparedness Framework evaluations. In this System Card, we provide a detailed look at GPT-4o's capabilities, limitations, and safety evaluations across multiple categories, focusing on speech-to-speech while also evaluating text and image capabilities, and measures we've implemented to ensure the model is safe and aligned. We also include third-party assessments on dangerous capabilities, as well as discussion of potential societal impacts of GPT-4o's text and vision capabilities.

We report the development of GPT-4, a large-scale, multimodal model which can accept image and text inputs and produce text outputs. While less capable than humans in many real-world scenarios, GPT-4 exhibits human-level performance on various professional and academic benchmarks, including passing a simulated bar exam with a score around the top 10% of test takers. GPT-4 is a Transformer-based model pre-trained to predict the next token in a document. The post-training alignment process results in improved performance on measures of factuality and adherence to desired behavior. A core component of this project was developing infrastructure and optimization methods that behave predictably across a wide range of scales. This allowed us to accurately predict some aspects of GPT-4's performance based on models trained with no more than 1/1,000th the compute of GPT-4.

Soft biological tissues often have complex mechanical properties due to variation in structural components. In this paper, we develop a novel UNet-based neural network model for inversion in elasticity (El-UNet) to infer the spatial distributions of mechanical parameters from strain maps as input images, normal stress boundary conditions, and domain physics information. We show superior performance, both in terms of accuracy and computational cost, by El-UNet compared to fully-connected physics-informed neural networks in estimating unknown parameters and stress distributions for isotropic linear elasticity. We characterize different variations of El-UNet and propose a self-adaptive spatial loss weighting approach. To validate our inversion models, we performed various finite-element simulations of isotropic domains with heterogenous distributions of material parameters to generate synthetic data. El-UNet is faster and more accurate than the fully-connected physics-informed implementation in resolving the distribution of unknown fields. Among the tested models, the self-adaptive spatially weighted models had the most accurate reconstructions in equal computation times. The learned spatial weighting distribution visibly corresponded to regions that the unweighted models were resolving inaccurately. Our work demonstrates a computationally efficient inversion algorithm for elasticity imaging using convolutional neural networks and presents a potential fast framework for three-dimensional inverse elasticity problems that have proven unachievable through previously proposed methods.

Computational biomarkers (CBs) are histopathology-derived patterns extracted from hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) whole-slide images (WSIs) using artificial intelligence (AI) to predict therapeutic response or prognosis. Recently, slide-level multiple-instance learning (MIL) with pathology foundation models (PFMs) has become the standard baseline for CB development. While these methods have improved predictive performance, computational pathology lacks standardized intermediate data formats, provenance tracking, checkpointing conventions, and reproducible evaluation metrics required for clinical-grade deployment. We introduce GOLDMARK (https://artificialintelligencepathology.org), a standardized benchmarking framework built on a curated TCGA cohort with clinically actionable OncoKB level 1-3 biomarker labels. GOLDMARK releases structured intermediate representations, including tile coordinate maps, per-slide feature embeddings from canonical PFMs, quality-control metadata, predefined patient-level splits, trained slide-level models, and evaluation outputs. Models are trained on TCGA and evaluated on an independent MSKCC cohort with reciprocal testing. Across 33 tumor-biomarker tasks, mean AUROC was 0.689 (TCGA) and 0.630 (MSKCC). Restricting to the eight highest-performing tasks yielded mean AUROCs of 0.831 and 0.801, respectively. These tasks correspond to established morphologic-genomic associations (e.g., LGG IDH1, COAD MSI/BRAF, THCA BRAF/NRAS, BLCA FGFR3, UCEC PTEN) and showed the most stable cross-site performance. Differences between canonical encoders were modest relative to task-specific variability. GOLDMARK establishes a shared experimental substrate for computational pathology, enabling reproducible benchmarking and direct comparison of methods across datasets and models.
