GPT-4.5 Preview

OpenAI's largest GPT chat model at launch, released as a global research preview with broader knowledge, improved intent following and scaled pretraining rather than o-series reasoning.

Why this model scores 67.0

Broad knowledge and scaled pretraining lift capability, but the model lacks the deliberate reasoning and agentic emphasis of o-series releases. Pro and developer preview access makes deployment substantial but bounded. Hosted controls constrain control difficulty despite broad generative misuse potential.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to GPT-4.5 Preview

The model score of 67.0 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.20

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.

DoomBench social sharing card for GPT-4.5 Preview.
  1. GPT-4.5 Preview by OpenAI has a DoomBench model risk score of 67.0 out of 100, based on five transparent version-specific dimensions rather than the overall index.

  2. GPT-4.5 Preview's highest current DoomBench dimension is capability at 82.0 out of 100; the profile publishes every component score and its editorial rationale.

  3. DoomBench links 1 source-backed evidence item to GPT-4.5 Preview, while keeping the model's risk profile separate from each item's contribution to the live Doom Index.
