Sept 10 (Reuters) - OpenAI plans to release

"Strawberry", its reasoning-focused artificial intelligence, as

part of its ChatGPT service in the next two weeks, the

Information reported on Tuesday, citing two people who have

tested out the model.

Strawberry is different from other conversational AI because

of its ability to "think" before responding, rather than

immediately answering a query, according to the report.

Microsoft ( MSFT ) and OpenAI did not immediately respond to Reuters'

requests for comment.

Reuters had exclusively reported in July that ChatGPT-maker

OpenAI was working on a novel approach to its AI models in a

project code-named Strawberry.
