Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
OpenAI
GPT-4.1 mini, released by OpenAI in April 2025, is a smaller variant from the GPT-4.1 family designed for efficient, cost-effective deployments requiring long-context understanding. It features a 1M token context window and native image understanding, with maintained coding and instruction-following capabilities relative to its size. GPT-4.1 mini targets applications needing a balance between response speed, cost, and capability, such as production APIs with high request volumes.
Shanghai AI Lab
InternS1, released by Shanghai AI Laboratory at WAIC 2025 on July 26, 2025, is a multimodal scientific reasoning large language model designed for advanced problem-solving across mathematics, physics, chemistry, and related domains. It supports text, image, and potentially other scientific data formats as input, and demonstrated strong performance on competition-level scientific benchmarks. InternS1 targets open-source scientific research, STEM education, and applications requiring deep domain reasoning across natural science disciplines.
