Security, safety & abuse risks
- Repeated tool calls can duplicate external actions unless applications enforce idempotency and validate requests.
- Incorrect answers or generated code can cause downstream errors when accepted without independent validation.
- Time-sensitive decisions can be misled by stale information when applications do not provide current sources.
Known flaws & limitations
- Modest Aider Polyglot performance limits suitability for demanding code-editing work.
- The dated model can issue multiple calls to the same tool when parallel tool calling is enabled; OpenAI recommends disabling parallel tool calls.
- Its June 1, 2024 knowledge cutoff means later information requires external grounding.
- Does not support native audio or video input, or image and audio generation.
