alt Hacker News> makes use of parallel test time compute
Any idea what that means exactly? I vaguely remember that ChatGPT Pro was originally called "deep thought", just like Geminis "deep thought" feature (or "deep think"?), so it seems likely they are using the same approach.
Their methodology isn't published.
Its widely accepted[1] that it runs the same query through the model in parallel and then has a model that either selects the best answer or synthesizes an answer from the multiple ones generated.
I believe most people think it runs 6 sub-models, but I think that is based on the pricing.
It's a pity that OpenAI doesn't publish details like this.
