## AI 摘要

GPT-4在ECI指数上保持第一约一年，远超其后任何模型。OpenAI的o1以三个多月的领先时长位居第二，不到GPT-4统治期的三分之一。自2024年2月Claude 3 Opus取代GPT-4后，榜首已易手17次，每款模型的中位在位时长约为七周。这表明模型间竞争显著加剧，性能提升更快但幅度更小。

OpenAI's GPT-4 held the top spot on the Epoch Capabilities Index (ECI) for about a year. The ECI is a composite measure of language model performance. According to Epoch AI researcher Jaeho Lee, that's far longer than any model since. OpenAI's o1 held the second-longest lead at just over three months, less than a third of GPT-4's reign. Since Claude 3 Opus dethroned GPT-4 in February 2024, the lead has changed hands 17 times. The median stay at the top per model was about seven weeks.

The chart can be read two ways. It shows how long rival labs needed to match GPT-4, a genuine outlier at launch. But it also shows that competition has gotten much fiercer since. No model can hold a comparable lead anymore, and the capability jumps between transitions are faster but smaller compared to GPT-4 and the era that began with reasoning models like o1-preview in fall 2024.
