OpenAI: GPT-4 Turbo (older v1106)
Analysis Summary
GPT-4 Turbo v1106 is an early GPT-4 Turbo release with a 128K context window, vision, tool use, and function calling. Its measured reasoning index is 25.6, with coding at 21.8, while the supplied results show useful performance on general knowledge and instruction-oriented tasks. Input pricing is $10 per million tokens and output pricing is $30.
It can support structured content production, document analysis, and basic tool-driven workflows, especially where a large context is important. Coding and advanced reasoning are below current professional standards, and the premium output price makes high-volume automation unattractive. Use it only where an existing integration depends on this version or where legacy compatibility matters; new deployments should favour newer, better-measured alternatives.
