OpenAI o3 と o4-mini が登場

全てのツールにアクセスが可能な、これまでで最もスマートかつ高性能なモデル

読み込んでいます...

本日、OpenAI o3 および o4-mini をリリースします。応答する前に時間をかけて思考するよう学習させた o シリーズの最新モデルです。これまでにリリースした中で最もスマートなモデルとして、一般ユーザーから専門の研究者まで、全ての人に ChatGPT の機能の躍進を実感していただけるでしょう。リーズニングモデルは、ウェブの検索、Python によるアップロードされたファイルなどのデータの分析、視覚的な入力に対する深い論理的思考、画像の生成など、ChatGPT 内の全ツールを初めてエージェント的に使用し、組み合わせることができます。特に、これらのモデルは、より複雑な問題を解決するために、いつ、どのようにツールを使用するかを論理的に思考し、詳細で思慮深い答えを通常1分以内に適切な出力形式で生成するよう学習しています。これで多面的な質問により効果的に対応できるようになり、ユーザーに代わって独立してタスクを実行できる、よりエージェント的な ChatGPT へ一歩前進します。最先端の論理的思考と全ツールへのアクセスを組み合わせることで、学術的なベンチマークや実世界のタスクにおいて大幅に強化されたパフォーマンスを発揮し、インテリジェンスと有用性の両面で新たな基準を打ち立てます。

変更点

OpenAI o3 は、コーディング、数学、科学、視覚認識などのフロンティアを押し広げる、最も強力なリーズニングモデルです。Codeforces や SWE-bench（カスタムモデル固有のスキャフォールドを構築することなく）、MMMU などのベンチマークで新たな最先端を打ち立てます。多面的な分析が求められ、答えがすぐには導き出せような複雑なクエリに最適です。特に、画像や図表、グラフィックの分析など、視覚的なタスクを得意としています。社外専門家による評価では、o3 は OpenAI o1 と比較して、困難な実世界のタスクにおける大きなミスが20%少なく、特にプログラミングやビジネス／コンサルティング、創造的なアイデア出しのような分野で優れています。初期段階のテスターは、思考のパートナーとしての分析的な厳密さを特筆し、特に生物学や数学、工学の文脈において、新しい仮説を生み出し、批判的に評価する能力を強調しました。

OpenAI o4-mini は、高速でコスト効率の高い論理的思考に最適化された小型モデルで、特に数学やコーディング、視覚的タスクにおいて、そのサイズとコストに対して驚異的な性能を発揮します。AIME 2024 および2025でベンチマークされたモデルとして最高の性能を示しました。専門家の評価では、データサイエンスのような分野のほかにも、非 STEM のタスクにおいても前身の o3‑mini を上回っています。効率性に優れる o4-mini は、o3 よりも使用制限がかなり高くなり、論理的思考が有益となる高ボリューム、高スループットで強力なオプションとなっています。

社外専門家による評価では、両モデルともインテリジェンスが向上し、ウェブソースが含まれるようになったことで、従来モデルよりも指示に従う精度が改善され、より有用で検証可能な回答が得られるようになったとされました。また、この両モデルは、特にメモリや過去の会話を参照してより個人に合わせた関連性の高い応答を行うことから、旧バージョンのリーズニングモデルと比較して、さらに自然で会話するような印象を与えるはずです。

指示の遵守とツールのエージェント的な使用

全てのモデルは、ChatGPT の「o4-mini-high」のようなバリエーションと同様に、高い「論理的思考努力」設定で評価されています。

強化学習の継続的拡大

OpenAI o3 の開発全体を通して、大規模な強化学習は GPT シリーズの事前学習で観察されたのと同じ「計算量が多い＝性能が高い」という傾向を示すことを観察しました。今回は RL でスケーリングパスを再トレースすることで、学習計算と推論時間リーズニングの両方でさらに1桁押し上げましたが、それでも明らかな性能向上が見られ、モデルの性能は思考時間が長いほど向上することが検証されました。OpenAI o1 と同等のレイテンシとコストで、o3 は ChatGPT でより高い性能を発揮します。また、長い時間思考を与えると、その性能が向上を続けることも確認されています。

また、強化学習を通してツールを使うように両モデルに学習させました。ツールの使い方だけでなく、ツールを使う状況について論理的に思考することも教えています。特に、視覚的な論理的思考や多段階のワークフローを伴うようなオープンエンドの状況において、望まれる結果に応じてツールを使う能力は高い能力を発揮します。初期段階のテスターが報告したように、この改善は学術的なベンチマークと実世界のタスクの両方に反映されています。

画像を使って考える

これらのモデルは、初めて、画像を Chain-of-Thought に直接組み込むことができるようになりました。画像を見るだけでなく、それを使って考えるのです。これにより、視覚とテキストによる論理的思考を融合させた新たな問題解決のクラスが実現し、マルチモーダルベンチマークにおける最先端の性能に反映されています。

ホワイトボードの写真、教科書の図表、手描きのスケッチなどをアップロードすると、イメージがぼやけている、逆さまになっている、低画質という場合でも、モデルはそれを解釈できます。ツールを使うことで、モデルはリーズニングプロセスの一環として、画像をその場で回転させる、ズームする、変形させるなどの操作ができます。

これらのモデルは、視覚認識タスクにおいてクラス最高の精度を実現し、これまで不可能だった問題を解決できるようになります。詳しくは視覚的な論理的思考の研究に関するブログ⁠をご覧ください。

ツールのエージェント的な使用へ

OpenAI o3 および o4-mini は ChatGPT 内の全ツールにアクセスできます。API の Function Calling でユーザー独自のカスタムツールも私用できます。これらのモデルは、問題を解決するために、いつ、どのようにツールを使用するかを論理的に思考し、詳細で思慮深い答えを通常1分以内に適切な出力形式で生成するよう学習しています。

プロンプト例：“How will summer energy usage in California compare to last year?” (カリフォルニアの夏のエネルギー使用量は昨年と比べてどうか？)モデルは、複数のツール呼び出しを連結して、ウェブで公共事業のデータを検索し、Python コードを書いて予測を構築し、グラフやイメージを生成し、予測を裏付ける主な要因を説明できます。論理的思考によって、モデルは受け取った情報に適宜反応し、方向転換できます。例えば、検索プロバイダーを利用してウェブを複数回検索し、結果を見て、さらに情報が必要なら新しい検索を試すことができます。

この柔軟で戦略的なアプローチにより、モデルに内蔵された知識にない最新情報へのアクセス、長い論理的思考、合成、モダリティを超えた出力生成を必要とするタスクに対応できます。

Solve the following very hard math problem using your in-built knowledge of the literature:

Construct a degree 19 polynomial \ (p(x)) \ in \ mathbb{C}[x] such that \ (X := \ {\, p(x) = p(y) \, \} \ subset \ mathbb{P}^{1} \ times \ mathbb{P}^{1}\ ) has at least 3 (but not all linear) irreducible components over \ mathbb{C}. Choose \ (p(x)\ ) to be odd, monic, have real coefficients and linear coefficient \ (-19\ ) and calculate \ (p(19)\ ).

多項式に関する55秒間の論理的思考

The curve defined by p(x) = p(y) factors if p(x) is decomposable or has repeated factors. Actually, p(x)-p(y) always factors, and it’s divisible by (x-y). This gives one factor, and the rest is a degree d-1 polynomial in x and y. For the curve to have at least three irreducible components, p(x)-p(y) must factor into at least three nontrivial factors. Each factor corresponds to a component in projective space, and at least one must be nonlinear.
I’m checking the Dickson polynomials D_n(x,a) and focusing on their coefficients. With a=1, it seems the leading coefficient is always 1, confirming that Dickson polynomials are monic. The linear coefficient for odd n is following a predictable sign pattern: for n=19, it gives a coefficient of -19, which is exactly what I need. So the Dickson polynomial D_n(x,1) with odd n fits nicely with the linear coefficient I was looking for.
I've confirmed that the linear coefficient for p(x)=D19(x)p(x) = D_{19}(x)p(x)=D19(x) is correct, with the necessary scaling factor to match. Now for the next step, I need to compute D19(19)D_{19}(19)D19(19). Since Tn(z)T_n(z)Tn(z) grows quickly for real z>1z > 1z>1, I plan to compute this value using Python, leveraging the recurrence to avoid mistakes—it's going to be a big number. I'll make sure to present the numeric result neatly so it's understandable since the coefficients are integers.
The Dickson polynomial D_{19}(x,1) is confirmed to have the required properties: monic, odd, real coefficients, and a linear coefficient of -19. The factorization of D_{19}(x) into irreducible components is also verified and satisfies the condition of having at least 10 components (1 linear + 9 quadratics). To compute p(19), we'll use the recurrence relation for Dickson polynomials, but there's also a closed-form expression involving cosine that could be handy here. I'll proceed accordingly!
I confirmed the linear coefficient is working correctly, which means now I need to calculate p(19)=D19(19)p(19) = D_{19}(19)p(19)=D19(19). This involves evaluating T19(9.5)T_{19}(9.5)T19(9.5), which grows rapidly. To ensure I get an accurate result, I'll compute this using recurrence in Python. The result is a large number: 1,876,572,071,974,094,803,391,179. I'll use the commas to make it easier to read: p(19)=1,876,572,071,974,094,803,391,179p(19) = 1,876,572,071,974,094,803,391,179p(19)=1,876,572,071,974,094,803,391,179.
For a = 1, there’s a relationship between Dickson polynomials and Chebyshev polynomials: D_n(x, 1) = 2^(n-1) T_n(x/2). Checking this, we see that the definition of D_n(u + 1/u) aligns well with Chebyshev’s formula. By setting x = 2 cos(θ), we find that D_n(x) equals 2 T_n(x/2). Importantly, the leading coefficient works out to 1, confirming the identity holds. This is nice!
Now, I need to verify that p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) factors as desired, relying on the known Dickson polynomial factorization. According to the literature (like Fried and Jarden), the difference Dn(x)−Dn(y)D_n(x) - D_n(y)Dn(x)−Dn(y) factors into a product involving (x−y)(x - y)(x−y) and other expressions. I'll provide the explicit polynomial D19(x,1)D_{19}(x, 1)D19(x,1), list the coefficients, and explain how it satisfies the desired properties: monic, odd, etc. Lastly, I'll compute p(19)p(19)p(19).

Done

A convenient way to force many factors in
$p(x) \;-\; p(y)$ is to use a Dickson polynomial of the first kind.
For a parameter $a \in \mathbb{C}$ in math these are defined by

$D_0\!\left(x,\, a\right) = 2,\; D_1\!\left(x,\, a\right) = x,\; D_n\!\left(x,\, a\right) = x\,D_{n-1}\!\left(x,\, a\right) - a\,D_{n-2}\!\left(x,\, a\right)\quad (n \ge 2),$

and satisfy the functional identity

$D_n\!\left(u + \frac{a}{u},\, a\right) = u^{n} + \frac{a^{n}}{u^{n}}.$

1. Choosing the polynomial

Take $a = 1$ and $n=19$ .
Because $n$ is odd, $D_{19}\!\left(x,\, 1\right)$ is an odd polynomial; the recurrence immediately shows it is monic and has integer (hence real) coefficients.
The coefficient of $x$ is $x = (-1)^{\frac{n-1}{2}}\,n = -19,$ so all requested normalisations are satisfied.

Writing it out gives

$\boxed{% p(x) = D_{19}\!\left(x,1\right) = x^{19} - 19x^{17} + 152x^{15} - 665x^{13} + 1729x^{11} - 2717x^{9} + 2508x^{7} - 1254x^{5} + 285x^{3} - 19x% }\,.$

2. Irreducible components of $fX \;=\; \bigl\{\, p(x) = p(y) \,\bigr\}$

For Dickson polynomials one has the classical factorisation

$D_n\!\left(x,1\right) \;-\; D_n\!\left(y,1\right) \;=\; (x - y)\, \prod_{j=1}^{\frac{n-1}{2}} \Bigl( x^{2} + y^{2} - 2\cos\!\bigl(\tfrac{2\pi j}{n}\bigr)\,xy - 4\sin^{2}\!\bigl(\tfrac{\pi j}{n}\bigr) \Bigr),$

where each quadratic factor is irreducible over $\mathbb{C}$ (see, e.g., Lidl–Niederreiter, Finite Fields, §3.6).
For $n=19$ this gives

one linear component $x=y;$
nine quadratic components (corresponding to $\bigl(j = 1,\,\ldots,\,9\bigr).$

Hence $X \subset \mathbb{P}^{1} \times \mathbb{P}^{1}$ has $10$ irreducible components, at least three of them and not all linear, as required.

3. Evaluating $p(19)$

Using the recurrence (or the identity $D_n\!\left(x,\,1\right) \;=\; 2\,T_n\!\bigl(\tfrac{x}{2}\bigr)$ with Chebyshev $T_n$ one obtains

$p(19) \;=\; D_{19}\!\left(19,\,1\right) \;=\; 1\,876\,572\,071\,974\,094\,803\,391\,179.$

Thus the polynomial above fulfils every condition, and

$\boxed{% p(19) \;=\; 1{,}876{,}572{,}071{,}974{,}094{,}803{,}391{,}179 }.$

I’m piecing together a degree 19 polynomial with only odd powers and a linear coefficient of -19, like: p(x)=x19+a17x17+…+a1xp(x) = x^{19} + a_{17}x^{17} + \ldots + a_1xp(x)=x19+a17x17+…+a1x.

I'm examining if the polynomial p(x)=x19+a17x17+…+a3x3−19xp(x) = x^{19} + a_{17}x^{17} + \ldots + a_3x^3 - 19xp(x)=x19+a17x17+…+a3x3−19x has a notable classical form, considering symmetry or factorization for multiple irreducible components.

To ensure p(x)p(x)p(x) has three or more irreducible components, I’m considering the factorization of p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) into at least three irreducible factors in C[x,y]\mathbb{C}[x,y]C[x,y].

I'm working through x19−y19x^{19} - y^{19}x19−y19 to ensure it balances linear and nonlinear factors, aiming for a polynomial with at least three irreducible components that aren't all linear.

Taking a closer look at how p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) can be factored into three distinct polynomials in xxx, aiming to achieve the desired irreducible components.

I'm thinking about how composing ppp with simpler polynomials, like xm−cx^m - cxm−c, could result in multiple irreducible components, achieving at least three distinct factors.

I’m exploring the factorization of p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) with cyclotomic polynomials. This method generates nnn linear irreducible factors, which might not achieve the required three distinct components.

I'm focusing on constructing an "odd" and monic polynomial, ensuring all exponents are odd and the leading term is x19x^{19}x19. This approach aims to achieve the desired factorization.

I'm working with the Chebyshev polynomials to ensure p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) has at least three irreducible components, leveraging their even or odd properties to manage coefficients.

Considering the odd Chebyshev polynomial T19(x)T_{19}(x)T19(x) for potential factorization, while also examining composite polynomials of lower degrees to enhance factorization properties.

I'm analyzing how a polynomial composed of lower-degree polynomials, like (x3−3x)k(x^3 - 3x)^k(x3−3x)k, could yield p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) with at least three irreducible components.

Piecing together polynomials with integer coefficients, like (x3−3x)k(x^3 - 3x)^k(x3−3x)k, to achieve factorization in p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) with at least three irreducible components, aiming for degree 19.

I’m examining how p(x)=(x3−3x)kp(x) = (x^3 - 3x)^kp(x)=(x3−3x)k or p(x)=x19−19xp(x) = x^19 - 19xp(x)=x19−19x might yield p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) with three irreducible components, focusing on ensuring the polynomial is of degree 19.

I’m analyzing p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) into (x−y)(x18+x17y+…+y18−19)(x-y)(x^{18} + x^{17}y + \ldots + y^{18} - 19)(x−y)(x18+x17y+…+y18−19) to identify irreducible components. The polynomial factor x18+x17y+…+y18−19x^{18} + x^{17}y + \ldots + y^{18} - 19x18+x17y+…+y18−19 remains challenging to factor further.

I’m thinking through a new approach: adjusting the Chebyshev polynomial T19(x)T_{19}(x)T19(x) to make it monic, aiming to achieve at least three irreducible components in p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y).

OK, let's think through. I’m tweaking T19(x)T_{19}(x)T19(x)'s coefficients to keep the polynomial monic and check if it simplifies into multiple irreducible components.

I'm thinking over various factorization strategies for a monic polynomial of degree 19. The goal is to ensure at least one non-linear factor and achieve at least three irreducible components in p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y).

I’m updating my approach to factor x2+xy+y2−1x^2 + xy + y^2 - 1x2+xy+y2−1 over complex numbers by exploring change of variables and third roots of unity. This helps in achieving the desired polynomial structure.

I'm combining x3−xx^3 - xx3−x with x19−19xx^{19} - 19xx19−19x to tweak the polynomial's coefficients and complexity, aiming to include more non-linear factors for the desired irreducibility.

Piecing together p(x)=x19−x3−19xp(x) = x^{19} - x^3 - 19xp(x)=x19−x3−19x to ensure it’s odd, monic, and has the required linear coefficient. This targets the desired irreducible factorizations.

I’m mapping out the second factor x18+…+y18−x2−xy−y2−19x^{18} + \ldots + y^{18} - x^2 - xy - y^2 - 19x18+…+y18−x2−xy−y2−19 to see if it can split into three irreducible components.

I’m considering methods to factorize the polynomial by making it divisible by x−yx - yx−y and ensuring the remaining factor splits into exactly two irreducible components, aiming for a less complex factorization.

I’m examining the polynomial x18+x17y+…+y18x^{18} + x^{17}y + \ldots + y^{18}x18+x17y+…+y18 and noting it simplifies to x19−y19x−y\frac{x^{19} - y^{19}}{x - y}x−yx19−y19, which might reveal further irreducible factors.

I’m mapping out the polynomial x(x18−1)−y(y18−1)x−y\frac{x(x^{18}-1) - y(y^{18}-1)}{x-y}x−yx(x18−1)−y(y18−1) for further factorization. This might yield just two irreducible components, which falls short of three.

I’m exploring whether the polynomial p(x)=x19−(x3)p(x) = x^19 - (x^3)p(x)=x19−(x3) can be expressed as the composition of a smaller polynomial with xkx^kxk, potentially revealing multiple irreducible components.

I'm examining if the polynomial T19(x)T_{19}(x)T19(x) can be factored using trigonometric identities, seeking partial factorization without fully linearizing, to gain multiple irreducible components.

OK, let me see. Trigonometric identities show multiple solutions for θ\thetaθ and ϕ\phiϕ, likely leading to 19 or 38 linear factors for T19(x)T_{19}(x)T19(x).

I’m examining how the equation arccos⁡x=±arccos⁡y+2kπ19\arccos x = \pm \arccos y + \frac{2k\pi}{19}arccosx=±arccosy+192kπ leads to possible multiple branches, potentially irreducible in the algebraic sense, and needing an example with at least three non-linear irreducible components.

OK, let me see. I’m pulling together details on the polynomial x3(x2−1)8+xx^3 (x^2 - 1)^8 + xx3(x2−1)8+x. It’s monic, with x19x^{19}x19 as the leading term, ensuring it meets key criteria.

I’m noting that the polynomial p(x)=x3(x2−1)8+xp(x) = x^3 (x^2 - 1)^8 + xp(x)=x3(x2−1)8+x is odd, with its linear coefficient patterning to -19.

I’m figuring out how to adjust the linear coefficient of polynomial p(x)p(x)p(x) to -19 by adding a constant factor ccc in front of xxx to ensure it’s adequately modified.

By tweaking the linear coefficient of p(x)=x3(x2−1)8+cxp(x) = x^3 (x^2 - 1)^8 + c xp(x)=x3(x2−1)8+cx to -19, it ensures the polynomial remains monic, odd, and real.

I’m working on adding a constant factor ccc to xxx in p(x)=x3(x2−1)8+cxp(x) = x^3 (x^2 - 1)^8 + c xp(x)=x3(x2−1)8+cx to ensure the linear coefficient is -19, making the polynomial monic, odd, and real.

I'm piecing together the polynomial p(x)=x3(x−1)8(x+1)8p(x) = x^3 (x-1)^8 (x+1)^8p(x)=x3(x−1)8(x+1)8 and considering how p(x)−p(y)p(x) - p(y)p(x)−p(y) might factor with factors like x−yx-yx−y.

I’m confirming p(x)p(x)p(x) is monic, odd, and real, with a linear coefficient of -19, by expanding x3(x2−1)8x^3 (x^2 -1)^8x3(x2−1)8 to set the constant ccc.

I found that for p(x) to have a coefficient of -19 for the x term, c must be -19. The polynomial, p(x), incorporates this constant and preserves the original polynomial's structure.

Below is one concrete example (over the reals) of an odd, monic, degree 19 polynomial with linear coefficient $-19$ whose zero-locus relation $\{\,p(x)=p(y)\,\}\ \text{in }\mathbb{P}^{1}\times\mathbb{P}^{1}$ splits into at least three irreducible components (and not all components are linear). We then compute $p(19)$ .

1. The polynomial

Consider

$p(x) \;=\; x^{3}\,\bigl(x^{2}-1\bigr)^{8} \;-\; 19x.$

We can expand

$x^{3}\,\bigl(x^{2}-1\bigr)^{8} \;=\; x^{19}\;-\;8x^{17}\;+\;28x^{15}\;-\;56x^{13}\;+\;70x^{11} \;-\;56x^{9}\;+\;28x^{7}\;-\;8x^{5}\;+\;x^{3}.$

Hence

$p(x) \;=\; x^{19} \;-\; 8x^{17} \;+\; 28x^{15} \;-\; 56x^{13} \;+\; 70x^{11} \;-\; 56x^{9} \;+\; 28x^{7} \;-\; 8x^{5} \;+\; x^{3} \;-\; 19x.$

Checking the required properties

Degree 19, monic:
The leading term is $x^{19}$ with coefficient $1$ .

Odd polynomial:
All exponents are odd $\bigl(19,\,17,\,\ldots,\,3,\,1\bigr),$ and the constant term is $0$ . Indeed,

$p(-x) \;=\; -\,p(x),$

which makes $p$ an odd polynomial.

Real coefficients:
All coefficients are real integers.

Linear coefficient $-19$ :
The coefficient of $x$ is clearly $-19$ .

At least three irreducible components, not all linear:
Over $\mathbb{C}$ , the locus

$X \;=\; \bigl\{\, (x,y) : p(x)=p(y) \,\bigr\} \;\subset\; \mathbb{P}^{1}\times\mathbb{P}^{1}$

factors in part because $p(x)$ has (for instance) the repeated factors $\bigl(x^{2}-1\bigr)^{8}$ in the big piece $x^{3}\,\bigl(x^{2}-1\bigr)^{8}$ . One sees that $\{\,p(x)=p(y)\,\}$ contains (at least) the divisor $${x=y\}$$ plus further factors coming from the roots $x = 0 \;\text{or}\; x = \pm 1,$ ensuring multiple irreducible components (and not all of them are hyperplanes).

2. Computing $p(19)$

A direct substitution $x=19$ gives a large integer. Symbolic expansion or a computer algebra system yields

$p(19) \;=\; 1934999285524070399999639.$

Hence the required value is

\boxed{\,p(19) \;=\; 1934999285524070399999639\,}. \] :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

The focus is on expansion into a new European country and a city in Asia, with updated data and visualizations (via charts). To start, I’ll consider European cities like Athens, Valencia, or Prague—thinking about new markets, especially given the user already operates in Lisbon. Next, I'll gather relevant data for these cities and potentially an Asian location too, comparing factors like growth rates and occupancy trends to make the best recommendation.

For the Asian location, I’m thinking about cities like Da Nang, Osaka, Chiang Mai, Penang, or Seoul. I'll need to choose one based on key factors. I'll gather data like occupancy rates and tourism arrivals from reliable sources, such as Eurostat, UNWTO, or STR Global. I’ll also need to generate charts to visualize these trends. I can simulate numbers for now, but I'll make sure to provide accurate figures, so I’ll check current data by browsing for source-specific statistics.

I need to focus on one European city for expansion. Athens, Valencia, Warsaw, Budapest, Krakow, Dubrovnik, and Malaga are options, but let’s narrow it down to Athens or Valencia. Since the user wants a new country in Europe, Spain and Greece are strong contenders. Valencia has an 80-90% occupancy rate and solid economic indicators, while Athens shows strong growth in occupancy and RevPAR. In Asia, Osaka, Bangkok, and Da Nang are possibilities, but Osaka is seeing a tourism surge with about 76% occupancy.
For Asia, Bangkok has a 74% occupancy rate for H1 2024 with 35.5 million international arrivals, but Da Nang has strong growth, even though occupancy is at 60-65%. Osaka could be a good choice—it’s less saturated than Tokyo and offers lower land costs. Fukuoka is another possibility, but Osaka has solid data trends. To analyze this properly, we’ll include Athens, Valencia, Budapest, Osaka, Bangkok, and Da Nang in a chart. The visualization will compare occupancy, RevPAR growth, and tourism arrivals.
We have some estimated values for occupancy: Athens at 78%, Valencia at 85%, Budapest at 73%, Osaka at 74%, Bangkok at 74%, and Da Nang at 62%. Athens has a RevPAR growth of +11%, and Valencia is at +11.5%. Osaka should have high ADR, but we don’t have its RevPAR value—I'll focus on occupancy >76 and rate growth. For tourism arrivals, I estimated Athens’ airport growth at 14% YoY, but I should confirm exact details for Athens tourism arrivals in 2024.

We’ve got some useful airport passenger growth data now. To simplify, I’ll summarize the seasonal occupancy and other variables textually. I'll include key factors like GDP growth and unemployment for each city in a structured bullet-point format. For charts, I’m thinking of two bar charts: one for 2024 occupancy rate and one for tourism arrivals growth. I’ll also add a scatter chart for occupancy vs. passenger growth. I'll estimate values with disclaimers and provide citations for the numbers used.

I’ve confirmed occupancy numbers for Osaka (79%) and Bangkok (74%) while Da Nang’s occupancy for luxury hotels is around 60-65%, so it might not be ideal. Osaka stands out, especially with the upcoming Expo 2025. For each city, I’ll include occupancy, RevPAR growth, and passenger growth figures. I’ll also consider aspects like currency exchange and infrastructure. I’d better search for Budapest’s airport traffic growth so we can finalize our recommendations based on the most accurate data.

Okay, Budapest's occupancy is tricky, but I found an Airbtics source showing 76% for short-term rentals, which may work. Alternatively, I could consider Warsaw, but the occupancy is similar to Budapest’s. For the European candidates, I’ll focus on Athens and Valencia and rank them. I also want to consider Osaka, Bangkok, and maybe Da Nang for Asia. Let me gather the numbers for the selected cities to create a proper table with occupancy, RevPAR, and passenger growth figures.
We have occupancy and growth approximations for each city—Osaka, Bangkok, Da Nang, and Athens. For Osaka, I'll use an estimated 18% growth in international visitors, though we don’t have exact data. Bangkok’s occupancy is 74%, with visitor growth up by about 25%. Da Nang's visitor growth is unclear, but we can estimate it at 12%. I'll focus on Athens, Valencia, Osaka, and Bangkok for reliability. Now, I'll create a DataFrame and visualizations to highlight key metrics more precisely.

For Athens, we'll use an occupancy of 78% with 11.4% RevPAR growth and 13.1% passenger growth. Valencia will be at 73% occupancy (consistent with March 2025 data), 11.5% RevPAR growth, and 8.7% passenger growth. Osaka’s occupancy will be 79% with 8% RevPAR growth and an estimated 18% YOY visitor growth. Bangkok has 74% occupancy, a 6.6% RevPAR increase, and 26% passenger growth. I'll provide disclaimers about these estimates and build the DataFrame for comparison.

How we picked the short‑list

To find the most “future‑proof” expansion targets we looked at three leading indicators that consistently predict hotel performance two‑to‑three years out:

Signal	Why it matters	Data we used (2024)
Average hotel occupancy	Captures real, in‑market demand after short‑term‑rental leakage and seasonality	STR, national hotel‑association and market‑consultancy releases
RevPAR growth YoY	Shows pricing power and room‑rate headroom; > 8 % is a strong sign of tightening supply	STR, Cushman & Wakefield, Colliers
Air‑passenger growth	A forward indicator of both leisure and MICE demand; airports expand only when airlines commit	Airport authority stats & ACI Europe/Asia reports

(Raw numbers and sources per city are cited inline below; two quick visual snapshots generated above for occupancies and the occupancy ▸ passenger‑growth relationship.)

European candidates

	Athens, GR	Valencia, ES	Budapest, HU
2024 avg. hotel occupancy	78 %	73 %	76 %
RevPAR growth (YoY)	+11.4 %	+11.5 %	+14 %
Air‑passenger growth (YoY)	+13.1 %	+8.7 %	+19 %
Why it’s hot next	Year‑round demand, coastal mega‑project (Ellinikon), still‑limited new‑hotel pipeline	Mediterranean lifestyle pivoting to tech/events; cruise‑to‑stay conversion lifting ADR	Expo‑style public spend, St Regis ’25, huge low‑cost‑carrier network driving demand
Key risks	Land‑price surge in historic core; ADR volatility if short‑lets regulated	Heavy summer seasonality; looming water‑usage levies	Forint swings; big 2025–26 room deliveries could soften rates

European pick

Athens edges out on balanced year‑round demand and double‑digit air‑passenger growth with still‑manageable land costs outside the historic triangle. Secure plots near the upcoming Ellinikon coastal park for differentiation.

Valencia is an excellent plan‑B if you prefer Spain’s regulatory/political stability.

Asian candidates

	Osaka, Japan	Bangkok, Thailand
2024 avg. hotel occupancy	79 % (H1; highest in APAC after Tokyo)	74 % (H1, +4.8 pp YoY)
RevPAR growth (YoY)	+8 % YoY; ADR USD 121 (+12 %)	+6.6 % YoY (nation‑wide; Phuket/BKK up)
Air‑passenger growth (YoY)	~18 % (14.6 m int’l visitors, record)	+26 % (35.5 m visitors, regional #1)
Why it’s hot next	Expo 2025 & integrated resort drive >25 m incremental visitors; weak yen = bargain for western tourists; limited green‑field plots within loop = boutique premium	Visa‑free China/India boosts arrivals, 5‑year airport expansion plan; mass‑market drives high occupancy, but boutique segment still niche around Charoenkrung & Ari
Key risks	High construction costs, tight labor; Expo bubble may cool 2027‑28	Heavy new‑build pipeline (22 k rooms 2024‑27); political swings & Baht strength could hit margins

Asian pick

Osaka wins on mega‑event upside, currency tailwinds, and still‑undersupplied high‑design boutique stock (most inventory is branded mid‑scale). Target mid‑rise heritage conversions in Nakanoshima & Kitahama before land prices spike pre‑Expo.

Bangkok remains a strong “fast‑follower” option if you want sheer volume and lower entry costs.

Key take‑aways & next steps

1. Athens + Osaka give you complementary seasonality (Mediterranean shoulder‑season fills vs. Japan’s cherry‑blossom & Expo peaks) and diversified currency exposure (EUR / JPY).

2. Both markets show >75 % occupancy and double‑digit demand growth—rare in a post‑recovery cycle.

3. Move quickly: scout 50‑80‑room heritage assets within Q3 2025; aim to open mid‑2026 to catch the Expo and Athens’ growing winter city‑break market.

4. Lock in long‑term fixed‑rate financing now; rising ADRs plus currency spreads improve real returns.

5. Build pre‑opening buzz via collabs with local cultural institutions (e.g., Osaka’s National Museum of Art; Athens’ SNFCC) to stand out from branded chains.

ホテルの拡張要因に関する13秒間の論理的思考

Assessing hotel expansion

Piecing together simulated data for city tourism and economic growth. Using Python and matplotlib, I'll rank these cities by potential expansion benefits. This approach helps envision future trends and makes a well-informed choice.

I'm creating bar and line charts using matplotlib to track tourism and occupancy trends in hypothetical cities across Asia and Europe. This approach highlights growth patterns clearly and effectively.

I’m crafting a detailed analysis to pinpoint the best cities for hotel expansion. Using Python, I’ll prioritize ones with the greatest projected tourism and occupancy growth.

Below is a sample data-driven approach to selecting new boutique hotel sites in Europe and Asia, based on factors like tourism growth, seasonal occupancy, and local economic indicators. Because we cannot access live data in this environment, the numbers below are fictional. However, the method for collecting, analyzing, and visually reviewing these data can be replicated with actual statistics from tourism boards, governmental economic data, and hotel industry reports (e.g., STR Global, CBRE, etc.).

1. Relevant Factors for Boutique Hotel Expansion

Tourism Growth & Demographics

Year-over-year (YoY) increase in inbound travelers.
Growth in specific travel segments: leisure vs. business vs. “bleisure.”
Demographics of travelers, especially for lifestyle-focused or design-oriented hotels.

Seasonal Occupancy Trends

High vs. shoulder vs. off-season trends.
Rate of occupancy fluctuations (i.e., is it consistent year-round or extremely seasonal?).

Local Economic Indicators

GDP growth forecasts (3-5 years).
Levels of private investment and new developments.
Stability of local government, taxation, or real estate regulations impacting tourism/hospitality.

Competition / Market Saturation

Existing boutique hotels: supply vs. demand.
Average daily rate (ADR) or RevPAR (Revenue per available room) trends.

Infrastructure & Accessibility

Availability of international flights, airport capacity, rail connectivity.
Local attractions, business hubs, events, and conferences that draw travelers.

2. Sample Data and Analysis

Below, we create fictional data sets for five European and five Asian cities as an illustration. Suppose we’ve gathered:

Tourism Growth (YoY %) from 2022 to 2023 (proxy for short-term trajectory),
Projected GDP Growth (3-year avg.) as a measure of medium-term economic health,
Average Occupancy Rate (%) for hotels (2023),
Average Daily Rate (ADR) in USD as a proxy for market yield potential.

We then visualize these data in separate charts. Use a similar approach with real numbers from reputable data sources when finalizing an expansion decision.

2.1. Sample European Cities Data

Let’s say we consider five up-and-coming European cities:

City	Tourism Growth (YoY %)	Projected GDP Growth (3-yr)	Avg. Occupancy Rate (%)	ADR (USD)
Amsterdam	8.0	2.2	79	180
Prague	10.5	3.1	71	120
Barcelona	9.0	2.5	75	160
Budapest	11.0	3.5	68	100
Warsaw	7.5	3.8	65	95

2.2. Sample Asian Cities Data

For Asia, consider a short list of growing tourism hubs:

City	Tourism Growth (YoY %)	Projected GDP Growth (3-yr)	Avg. Occupancy Rate (%)	ADR (USD)
Bangkok	12.5	3.0	70	90
Ho Chi Minh	14.0	4.2	68	75
Tokyo	5.0	1.8	83	220
Kuala Lumpur	13.0	3.5	67	85
Seoul	6.5	2.2	80	140

3. Visualizing the Trends

Below is Python code that simulates creating these data frames, then plotting bar charts for each region. In practice, you would replace the fictional numbers with real data.

4. Interpreting the (Sample) Results

Europe
- Budapest and Prague show strong Tourism Growth and moderate Occupancy Rates. GDP growth projections are also relatively strong. These indicators suggest that the market for boutique hotels might be on the rise, potentially less saturated compared to major hubs like London, Berlin, or even Amsterdam.
- Warsaw shows a good GDP growth rate but a slightly lower current occupancy. This could mean a growing market that’s not fully tapped yet—potentially favorable for an early move.
Asia
- Ho Chi Minh and Kuala Lumpur show robust Tourism Growth and decent GDP projections. Their ADR (Average Daily Rate) is lower than Tokyo or Seoul, meaning it’s more affordable but with a potentially fast-rising market.
- Tokyo has a high occupancy rate and high ADR—very established but also highly competitive and potentially costly.
- Bangkok remains a strong tourism hub with continued double-digit tourism growth. However, it’s also known for well-established competition.

Based on these (fictional) charts, a boutique hotel chain looking to be ahead of the curve might find:

Budapest (Europe) offers rising tourism, moderate but improving occupancy, and a relatively affordable market.
Ho Chi Minh City (Asia) demonstrates a fast-growing economy, strong tourism increases, and still-moderate ADR—indicative of an emerging market.

5. Practical Steps for Real Data Analysis

1. Gather Official Statistics

Tourism boards, national statistical agencies, hotel associations (e.g., STR Global).
Data on inbound traveler numbers, hotel performance indexes, and pipeline reports on new hotels.

2. Examine 3-5 Years of Historical and Forecast Data

Identify upward or downward trends in arrivals, occupancy, and ADR.
Check local economic forecasts from reputable sources (IMF, World Bank, national banks).

3. Competitive Analysis

Look at how many new boutique hotels are opening in the next 2-3 years.
Are major hospitality players entering the same market?

4. On-the-Ground Insights

Visit the cities if possible, talk to local tourism boards, real estate developers, and potential partners.
Evaluate property availability, local partnerships, and regulatory details.

5. Develop a Weighted Score

Assign a weight to each factor (tourism growth, GDP, occupancy, infrastructure, etc.).
Rank prospective cities, but also consider your brand’s positioning (luxury, design-forward, mid-scale boutique, etc.).

6. Conclusion & Recommendation

Ideal European Expansion: Cities like Budapest, Prague, or Warsaw may offer excellent growth potential without the saturated competition and high costs of Western European capitals.
Ideal Asian Expansion: Ho Chi Minh City or Kuala Lumpur could offer strong demand growth, favorable costs, and less-saturated markets compared to Tokyo or Seoul.

The final decision should blend quantitative data (e.g., occupancy rates, market growth, economic forecasts) with qualitative factors such as brand alignment, guest demographics, and the local cultural fit for a boutique experience.

Important Disclaimer

All numeric data provided here is illustrative and fictitious, intended to demonstrate how you might visualize and interpret real-world metrics. For an actual expansion decision, use verified, up-to-date data sources and do more detailed on-the-ground due diligence.

There are numerous recent breakthroughs in battery technology, such as silicon anodes, solid-state batteries (like those from Toyota and QuantumScape), and advancements in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) tech from companies like CATL and BYD. Additionally, there's progress with sodium-ion and lithium-metal batteries. These technologies are greatly improving EV ranges — for example, the 2012 Nissan Leaf had a 117 km range compared to the 2024 Tesla Model S LR with over 650 km. I’ll make sure to illustrate these improvements with a chart.
Charging speeds have drastically increased: early DC fast chargers offered 50 kW, while now we see 250-350 kW chargers, with some 4C cells. For adoption, EV global sales have grown significantly, partly due to improved battery technology. I’ll gather sources like studies on solid-state batteries and CATL’s Shenxing LFP cells. Then, I’ll create charts comparing EV range, charging speeds, and adoption growth from 2012-2023, using sources like the IEA Global EV Outlook and vehicle data for comparison.

I'll summarize EV data, using range milestones, such as the Nissan Leaf’s 73 miles (2011) and Lucid Air’s 516 miles (2024). For charging power, example figures would show CHAdeMO at 50 kW (2011) and CATL’s Shenxing 4C cell at 480 kW (2023). EV adoption has drastically grown too — from 0.1M in 2011 to 40M in 2023, according to IEA data. Three line charts will visualize this. I also need to highlight major breakthroughs in battery technology, including high-silicon anodes and solid-state electrolytes.
I need to include academic studies like Nature Energy 2023 on lithium-metal solid-state and the Journal of Electrochemical Society 2024 on silicon anode cycling, along with research from UL or Argonne. I'll structure this content starting with an introductory paragraph, followed by key scientific breakthroughs in bullet points (with citations). I’ll then create charts using Python, interpret them (range, charging speed, and adoption), and summarize how battery improvements lead to quicker adoption. Finally, I’ll conclude. I’ll ensure the tone is structured yet conversational, with concise and detailed sections.
Next, I'll generate visual comparisons, including charts showing range increases, charging speed improvements, and adoption trends using Python. The data will highlight how battery improvements directly drive EV adoption. I’ll already have range and adoption data, but I’ll need a bit more info on charging speeds, like CHAdeMO 50 kW from 2011 with the Nissan Leaf. I'll search for trends in average EPA ranges and charging speed advancements to complete the analysis. I’ll make sure to keep it concise but still detailed!

With that, I’ll be ready to begin analyzing and presenting the trends. Let's keep this concise and effective!
I’ve gathered enough adoption data, including IEA 2024 and OurWorldInData sources. It seems I'm set there. For scientific studies, I’ve got Nature Energy and Sila for solid-state and silicon anodes. I might look into sodium-ion battery research next. So, with solid data on range, charging speed, and adoption, the next step is visual comparisons. I’ll build three charts: featuring trends like the median EV range over time (2011, 2014, 2018, 2024), using DOE data like Fact of Week #1064 and #1375.

What the data show at a glance

Range ↑ ~4× (2011 → 2024) – The U.S. median EPA‑rated range climbed from 73 mi in 2011 to 283 mi in 2024.
energy
Fast‑charging power ↑ ~8× – Mainstream EVs moved from 50 kW CHAdeMO on the first‑gen Nissan Leaf to 350 kW 800‑V platforms (e.g., Hyundai Ioniq 5) and 4 C‑capable cells such as CATL’s Shenxing (≈400 kW equivalent).
Adoption ↑ ~70× – Global sales grew from ≈0.2 M in 2013 to ≈14 M in 2023; one in five new cars sold last year was electric, lifting the global fleet above 40 M.

(Interactive charts and the underlying tables are shown above.)

Key scientific breakthroughs driving the gains

Breakthrough	Core idea	Impact on range / charge	Representative study or demo

How these translate into real‑world improvements

1. Longer trips on a single charge
Median U.S. range now comfortably covers most daily driving for a week, and > 500‑mi halo models (Lucid Air) rival gasoline cars.

2. Quicker pit‑stops
Charging times dropped from ~30 min per 100 mi (2011 Leaf) to < 10 min per 250 mi with 4 C LFP or future solid‑state packs, shrinking the “refuel” gap.

3. Lower cost & wider segment coverage
High‑volume LFP and emerging Na‑ion chemistries cut battery $/kWh and enable sub‑$25 k EVs in China, expanding the addressable market.

4. Adoption flywheel
Better specs + falling prices → consumer confidence → higher sales → economies of scale → further R&D investment—visible in the steep adoption curve.

Take‑aways for stakeholders

Automakers should lock in multi‑chemistry supply chains (LFP for mass‑market, high‑Si or solid‑state for premium) and design 800 V architectures to remain competitive.
Policy makers & utilities need to accelerate build‑out of 350 kW+ chargers and grid upgrades to support next‑gen 4 C packs.
Researchers & investors: silicon‑rich anodes and solid electrolytes remain the biggest levers for another step‑change in energy density; Na‑ion will be pivotal for low‑cost, resource‑constrained markets.

Recent battery technologies have focused on improving three main features: energy density, charging speed, and lifecycle durability (i.e., how long a battery retains capacity after many charge/discharge cycles). The most notable breakthroughs include:

Nickel-Rich NMC (Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt)

Example: NMC 811 (ratio 8:1:1 of Nickel, Manganese, Cobalt).
Higher nickel content → increased energy density → longer driving range per charge.
Challenge: Stability and safety issues at higher nickel contents; requires advanced thermal management.

Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Improvements

Historically favored for high safety and longevity, but lower energy density.
Advances in cell manufacturing and packing (e.g., cell-to-pack integration) have improved volumetric and gravimetric density, shrinking the gap vs. NMC.
Widely adopted in higher-volume, lower-cost EVs, especially in Asia, due to cost-effectiveness and robustness.

Silicon-Dominant Anodes

Replacing or blending graphite with silicon can drastically increase energy density.
Current challenge: silicon expansion during charge cycles, which can reduce battery lifespan.
Active area of research with partial commercial adoption in next-gen cells.

Solid-State Batteries (Pre-Commercial Stage)

Replace liquid electrolyte with a solid electrolyte; eliminates risk of leaks/flammability.
Potentially higher energy density, faster charging, and improved safety.
Challenges remain with cost, scale, and solid electrolyte conductivity.

Manufacturing Innovations

Examples: Tab-less design (Tesla’s 4680 cells), advanced coating processes, and new electrode production methods.
Aim to reduce internal resistance, enhance cooling, and lower costs.

Many of these breakthroughs have emerged from university lab research (e.g., the Argonne National Laboratory, MIT, and TU Munich), as well as corporate labs (e.g., Panasonic, LG Energy Solution, CATL, Samsung SDI, and Tesla R&D). Peer-reviewed journals such as Nature Energy, Advanced Energy Materials, and Journal of Power Sources frequently publish updates on these developments.

2. Relevant Industry and Research Findings

Study/Report	Focus	Key Finding
Argonne National Laboratory (2020)	Nickel-rich NMC stability	Improved electrode design (NMC 811) can achieve ~10–20% higher energy density vs. previous gen.
BloombergNEF (BNEF) Annual Battery Price Survey	Cost-per-kWh trends	Battery costs fell ~85% from 2010–2022 (from $1,200/kWh to ~$150/kWh).
Journal of Power Sources (2021)	Silicon anode feasibility	Hybrid graphite-silicon anodes can boost energy density by 20–40%.
IEA Global EV Outlook (2022)	EV adoption rates	EVs accounted for ~9% of global car sales in 2021, a significant jump from ~2.5% in 2019.

Range and Energy Density

Average range of mainstream EVs released around 2015: ~120–150 miles (200–240 km).
Modern EVs with NMC or improved LFP packs (2022–2025): ~250–350 miles (400–560 km) or more.
High-end models (e.g., some Tesla, Lucid, Mercedes EQS): 400+ miles (640+ km).

Charging Speeds

2015-era DC fast chargers: ~50 kW typical → ~80% charge in ~40–60 minutes.
2022+ fast chargers: 150 kW – 350 kW → ~80% charge in ~15–25 minutes (on supported vehicles).
Next-gen (some pilot stations): up to 500 kW → potential 10-minute charges, though practical factors vary.

3. Technical Specifications: Then vs. Now

Below is a simplified table capturing average specifications of EV batteries from the mid-2010s compared with recent models (2022–2025). Note that actual values can vary by model and manufacturer.

Specification	~2015	~2025 (Latest Tech)
Energy Density	~150 Wh/kg (NMC)	200–300 Wh/kg (high-Ni / LFP)
Cycle Life	~1,000 cycles to 80% capacity	1,500–2,500 cycles (some >3,000)
Fast-Charge Power	~50 kW typical	150–350 kW, pilot stations >500 kW
Cost per kWh	$400–$500/kWh (approx.)	$100–$150/kWh (leading edge)
Nominal Range	120–150 mi (200–240 km)	250–350 mi (400–560 km), top-end >400 mi (640+ km)

4. Adoption Trends

Global EV adoption has accelerated significantly in recent years:

2015–2017: Early-adopters phase; total global EV fleet <2 million.
2018–2020: Technology improvements + policy incentives spur growth; total EV stock surpasses 7 million (IEA).
2021–2022: Rapid jump to 16+ million EVs on the road (IEA). EVs reached 9–10% of new car sales globally in 2021.
2023–2025 Forecasts: Higher adoption as battery costs drop, range anxiety diminishes, and fast-charging infrastructure improves. Some estimates project 25–30% of new sales in major markets (e.g., Europe, China) by 2025.

Government policies (purchase subsidies, zero-emission vehicle mandates, CO₂ regulations) and corporate fleet electrification commitments also play a substantial role in accelerating adoption.

5. Visual Comparisons

Below are Python code snippets you can run locally to generate illustrative charts. These charts give a rough idea of improvements over time: (1) average EV range, (2) average fast-charge power rating, and (3) global EV adoption rates as a percentage of annual new car sales.

Note:
The numeric data in these code blocks are broad approximations for demonstration.
For more precision, you can replace the dummy arrays with official data from sources like the IEA, BloombergNEF, ACEA, or US DOE.

Overall Summary

Higher Energy Density → Longer Range. Nickel-rich chemistries and emerging silicon anodes have pushed mainstream EV range well beyond 250 miles, with some top-tier models exceeding 400 miles.
Faster Charging → Greater Convenience. Advances in cell design and thermal management have enabled fast-charge rates of 150 kW to 350 kW (and pilot stations up to 500 kW). This reduces average charging times significantly.
Reduced Battery Cost → Growing Adoption. Battery costs have fallen from hundreds of dollars per kWh to near $100–$150/kWh, making EVs more cost-competitive and contributing to exponential market growth.
Policy & Market Synergy. Beyond technological breakthroughs, government incentives and consumer awareness have been major drivers in the rise from <1% to nearly 10% of new car sales in some major markets.
Ongoing Research. Solid-state batteries and further improvements in lithium-metal and silicon-anode technologies promise another wave of enhancements in energy density, charging speed, and safety.

Key Takeaway: Thanks to more advanced chemistry (NMC 811, improved LFP, partial silicon anodes) and better manufacturing (e.g., tab-less cells, improved thermal management), EVs today offer significantly longer ranges and faster charging compared to those from just a few years ago. These improvements, coupled with declining battery costs, have accelerated EV adoption globally. Further breakthroughs (especially solid-state batteries) are likely to continue this upward trajectory in coming years.

What changed once the pitch‑timer arrived?

Season	Pitch‑clock rule	Avg. 9‑inning game	Δ vs. prior yr.	League ERA	BB/9	SO/9
2021	None – no clock	3 h 10 m	—	4.26	3.3	8.9

*through the end of the 2024 regular season. Game‑length and pitching averages are from Baseball‑Reference’s league year‑by‑year tables.
Rule‑timer details: MLB Glossary (2023) and the 2024 tweak reducing the runner‑on timer to 18 s.
Opening‑year news report of the 24‑minute time drop: Associated Press/ESPN, Oct 2 2023.

1. Pace‑of‑play: clocks did exactly what they were built for

Steepest one‑year drop in league history. Average games shrank by 24 minutes the instant the clock arrived (2023 vs. 2022), the first time since 2011 that a typical nine‑inning game finished under three hours.
Second‑year fine‑tuning. MLB trimmed two more seconds with runners aboard in 2024; game length fell a further three minutes to 2 h 36 m – the shortest since 1981.

2. How did pitchers adjust?

Key indicator	Pre‑clock trend	2023 shock	2024 settling‑in
ERA	drifting down (3.96 in ’22)	↑ to 4.33 — hitters benefitted	back down to 4.07
Walks/9	3.1 →	3.3 (extra rush showed in command)	returns to 3.1
Strikeouts/9	8.5 →	8.7 (no real drop‑off)	holds at 8.6

Interpretation

Early control wobble. The sudden pace forced some pitchers—especially deliberate tempo starters—to hurry. Walk rate and ERA jumped while stuff (K/9) held firm, hinting the issue was command, not velocity.
Adaptation by Year 2. A full offseason to train with the clock plus the small 18‑second runner‑on tweak let pitchers regain footing: walks receded and ERA dropped 0.26.
No evidence of arm fatigue spike. IP/starter, injury rates, and strikeout power stayed essentially flat, countering fears that reduced rest between pitches would sap velocity or health.
Game flow benefits everyone. Players report liking the crisper rhythm; fans get 30‑40 extra minutes of evening back; TV windows fit modern attention spans.

3. Big‑picture trends & what to watch in 2025

Question	Early signal
Will hitters’ running game keep booming?	The clock (plus bigger bases) cut pick‑off attempts; stolen bases per team jumped from 0.67 (’22) to 0.77 (’23) and held at 0.79 (’24).
Can clubs exploit fatigue late in counts?	Some teams are nudging hitters to step in quickly, denying pitchers micro‑rests. Monitor bullpen ERA under the tighter 18‑second limit.
Umpire enforcement consistency?	Violation totals tumbled from April ’23 to September ’24 as behavior normalized. If violations stay low, MLB may freeze the rules here.

Bottom line:

The pitch clock achieved its objective immediately—games are half an hour faster—with pitchers showing an initial bump in ERA and walks but rebounding in the second year as they adjusted to the new tempo. Expect incremental tinkering rather than wholesale changes going forward; the sport appears to have found its sweet‑spot pace.

7秒間の論理的思考

I’m figuring out how the MLB pitch clock rules from 2023 changed pitcher performance and game duration. It seems from research and hypothetical data, but recent seasons are still in the early stages.

I’m compiling data on game times and pitcher stats, crafting a synthetic dataset and charts to compare annual trends, particularly focusing on 2023.

Focusing on 2023, I’m charting the pitch clock's impact, noting a 25-minute shorter average game time, stable strikeouts, rising offense, and increased stolen bases.

I'm piecing together charts with approximate data on average game length and ERA/trikeout rates for 2023. Using matplotlib, I'll create a line chart for game length and a bar chart for pitching metrics.

In 2023, average game durations dropped while the league's ERA or strikeout rate saw slight shifts. I'm focusing on these trends, noting stolen base attempts could vary.

Below is a summary of how the new pitch-clock rule introduced in MLB for the 2023 season affected game durations and pitcher performance, along with sample data and visualizations to illustrate the trends. Because we do not have live access to external sources in this environment, the numeric examples below are approximate—drawn from publicly reported league-wide averages. However, the overall direction and magnitude of the changes reflect real-life reports from MLB and sports media.

1. Key Observed Effects of the Pitch Clock

Shorter Game Times

MLB’s average game time dropped significantly in 2023 (by about 20–25 minutes compared to 2022).
Previously, game lengths routinely exceeded three hours; in 2023, the league average settled closer to around 2 hours 35–40 minutes.

Pitcher Tempo and Performance

Many pitchers had to quicken their pace, which may contribute to increased fatigue later in games (particularly early in the season as they adjust).
Overall league-wide stats like ERA and WHIP did not drastically change, though there was some anecdotal evidence that pitchers who rely on a slower tempo were more adversely affected.
Strikeout and walk rates did not spike or crater drastically but stayed in the same ballpark as recent seasons.

Stolen Bases and Offensive Impact

Not the primary focus of your question, but it’s worth noting that along with the pitch clock, new pickoff rules led to a notable increase in stolen-base attempts and successes. This can indirectly affect pitcher performance in high-leverage situations.

Looking Toward the Latest Season

As of early 2024 (the latest MLB season), the pitch clock remains in place with minimal rule modifications. Early indications show that games continue to be shorter, and both pitchers and hitters have largely adjusted to the new tempo. Full-season data for 2024 is not yet available, but all signs suggest the reduced game times are persisting.

2. Example Data

Below is some approximate aggregated data comparing league-wide metrics from 2019 to 2023. Note that the 2020 season (shortened due to COVID-19) is often treated as an outlier, so it is omitted here for clarity. The data includes:

Season
Avg Game Time (minutes): Approximate league-wide average game length in minutes
League ERA: Approximate average ERA across MLB
Strikeout % (K%): Approximate rate of strikeouts per plate appearance
Walk % (BB%): Approximate rate of walks per plate appearance

Python

1data = {
2    "Season": [2019, 2021, 2022, 2023],
3    "Avg_Game_Time_minutes": [185, 189, 183, 158],  # Example approximate values
4    "League_ERA": [4.51, 4.26, 3.97, 4.20],         # Example approximate values
5    "K%": [22.3, 23.2, 22.4, 22.6],                 # Example approximate values
6    "BB%": [8.5, 8.4, 8.2, 8.3],                    # Example approximate values
7}

Below, we will load this data into a pandas DataFrame and generate a couple of simple charts: one for average game times by year and one for league-wide ERA by year. (The specific numerical values are illustrative.)

Python

1import pandas as pd
2import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
3
4# Construct the DataFrame
5df = pd.DataFrame(data)
6
7# Display the DataFrame to show the underlying table
8df

You might see something like:

Season	Avg_Game_Time_minutes	League_ERA	K%	BB%
2019	185	4.51	22.3	8.5
2021	189	4.26	23.2	8.4
2022	183	3.97	22.4	8.2
2023	158	4.20	22.6	8.3

3. Visualizing Game Time Trends

Below is an example of a line chart displaying how average game times (in minutes) changed between 2019 and 2023, showing the notable drop in 2023 with the pitch clock.

Python

1plt.figure(figsize=(6, 4))
2plt.plot(df['Season'], df['Avg_Game_Time_minutes'], marker='o')
3plt.title('Average MLB Game Time by Season')
4plt.xlabel('Season')
5plt.ylabel('Game Time (minutes)')
6plt.grid(True)
7plt.show()

Key Takeaways

The 2023 season shows a pronounced drop in average game time (from around 3 hours to around 2 hours 38 minutes or so).
This aligns with widely reported data that game lengths were reduced by 20+ minutes.

4. Visualizing Pitcher Performance (ERA)

Next is a bar chart that compares league-wide ERA across the seasons:

Python

1plt.figure(figsize=(6, 4))
2plt.bar(df['Season'], df['League_ERA'])
3plt.title('League-wide ERA by Season')
4plt.xlabel('Season')
5plt.ylabel('ERA')
6plt.show()

Key Takeaways

From this example data, the 2023 league ERA ticked up slightly compared to 2022.
The difference is not huge, which suggests that while the pitch clock changed pace of play, it did not drastically transform run prevention or inflate offense league-wide.
Other rules (like shifts limitations and bigger bases) also factored into 2023’s offensive environment.

5. Discussion of Key Trends

Shorter Games: The most obvious and direct effect of the pitch clock has been a reduction in dead time, leading to shorter games. This is beneficial for fans who prefer faster, more action-packed contests.

Adjustment Period for Pitchers:

Some pitchers who liked to take longer between pitches reported a steeper learning curve and occasional pitch-clock violations.
Pitchers generally adjusted over time, with fewer clock violations as the season progressed.

Little Change in Core Pitching Metrics:

Strikeout, walk, and ERA figures did not swing dramatically.
League-wide data indicates that any major changes in offensive outcomes are more closely tied to the simultaneous rule changes (like shift limitations and base size changes) rather than just the pitch clock.

Continued Impact Into the Latest Season:

Entering the 2024 season, the pitch clock remains in effect, and preliminary data suggests that shorter game times are here to stay.
Pitchers and hitters alike appear more comfortable with the new pace.

6. Conclusion

Game Duration: The pitch clock rule effectively trimmed around 20+ minutes from the average MLB game, making it one of the most significant game-time reductions in recent history.
Pitcher Performance: Although pitcher tempo changed, league-wide ERA and strikeout/walk rates remained relatively stable. Individual pitchers with slower routines may have been more affected, but overall, the rule did not lead to a major league-wide upheaval in pitching performance.
Overall Fan Experience: The consensus from fans and many players is that a faster pace makes for more engaging games, and early feedback from the 2024 season suggests the shorter game times have continued.

These charts and statistics give a high-level overview of how the 2023 pitch-clock rule affected MLB pitchers and game durations, with continuing influence as the league heads into and through the latest season.

I have an image of a schedule (likely from Puy du Fou España) for April 4th, 2025. It lists shows numbered 1-11, and I already saw show #4, "Cetrería de Reyes" (Falconry), so I need to plan the rest. The time is currently 12:00, and I need to include all remaining shows, adding a 10-minute buffer between each one. I’ll check the durations carefully and note immersive or continuous shows like #3 and #7. I need to zoom in on the table to get a closer look.

I need to plan the rest, ensuring I include all the shows except #4. I also need to consider their durations and a 10-minute buffer between each show. I’ll take a closer look at the table, as some shows are immersive and continuous, and the times aren’t clearly visible. It’s probably best to zoom in and manually annotate the schedule.

I need to zoom in on the bottom-right part of the schedule to see the big show times for Toledo, but the times aren’t clear due to the image quality. I'll try zooming into the left side, where I can see durations in the next column—maybe 30’, 25’, and so forth. It looks like I need to crop the area showing these durations for a closer look.

I need to zoom into the bottom-right for the big show times of Toledo. The times aren’t clear due to image quality, so I’ll try zooming into the left side instead. Now, I can see the durations in the next column, like 30', 25', and so on. Here’s the breakdown of durations:

Now I’ll crop horizontally to focus on the times area for transcription.

Row 3 (Allende la Mar Océana) might be an immersive show, running continuously from 12:30 to 19:00. For row 4, we already saw it earlier at 11:45, and possibly around 14:30 and 16:45. I need to double-check the order of the rows to ensure everything matches. It seems like I need to annotate the rows with their corresponding times based on the image. I'll enlarge the image and carefully annotate the row lines' positions to clarify.

Now I’m matching the times to the rows. For Row 1 ("El Último Cantar"), I see performances at 12:45, 16:15, and 19:15. Row 2 ("A Pluma y Espada") shows 14:15, 16:00, and 18:15.

Analyzed image

I'm working on mapping the show times based on the image. For Row 1, the durations at the top are 30', with shows at 12:45, 16:15, and 19:15. Row 2 shows durations of 30' too, with times at 14:15, 16:00, and 18:15. Row 3 has an immersive show from 12:30 to 19:00 (continuous). Row 4 runs for 30' with times at 11:45, 14:30, and 16:45 — I think we've seen this earlier. Now I'm ensuring the mapping is correct and examining vertical grid lines for clarity.
For the third row, I think the times span from 12:30 to 19:00 continually. The fourth row, with a 30-minute duration, seems to list 11:45, 14:30, and 16:45. The fifth row, with a 25-minute duration, could show 13:15 and 17:45. The sixth row, also 25 minutes, may start at 12:30. I need to zoom more horizontally to double-check the time placement and count the rows properly to confirm everything is correctly aligned.

Analyzed image

Alright, I've created the following mapping for shows based on the rows.

El Último Cantar – 30 minutes: times 12:45, 16:15, 19:15
A Pluma y Espada – 30 minutes: times 14:15, 16:00, 18:15
Allende la Mar Océana – 25 minutes (immersive, continuous): from 12:30 to 19:00
Cetrería de Reyes – 30 minutes: times 11:45, 14:30, 16:45 (already seen, so skip)
El Misterio de Sorbaces – 25 minutes: times 13:15, 17:45?

Okay, let's manually go through the grid and mark the times:
- Row 1 (El Último Cantar): 12:45, 16:15, 19:15
- Row 2 (A Pluma y Espada): 14:15, 16:00, 18:15
- Row 3 (Allende): 12:30–19:00 (immersive)
- Row 4 (Cetrería): 11:45, 14:30, 16:45
- Row 5 (El Misterio de Sorbaces): 13:15, 17:45
- Row 6 (El Tambor de la Libertad): 12:30 (seems to have duplicates?)
- Row 7 (De Tal Palo): 12:00–15:30 and 17:00–19:00 (immersive)
- Row 8 (Desmayarse): 13:30, 15:15
- Row 9 (El Espadero de Vivar): 15:15, 18:00
- Row 10 (Concierto del Arrabal): Times not listed—likely 19:30–21:00
- Row 11 (Sueño de Toledo): 21:30 (closing show)
Now, let’s check again for duplicates.

Analyzed image

Okay, to clear things up: Row 5 shows 25-minute duration, with times 13:15 and 17:45. Row 6, labeled El Tambor de la Libertad, has times 12:30 and 19:30. Row 7, De Tal Palo, is immersive from 12:00 to 15:30 and then again from 17:00 to 19:00. I’ll fully label and double-check:

El Último Cantar – 30’
A Pluma y Espada – 30’
Allende la Mar Océana – 25’
Cetrería de Reyes – 30’
El Misterio de Sorbaces – 25’
El Tambor de la Libertad – 25’
De Tal Palo – 40’
Desmayarse – 15’
El Espadero de Vivar – 25’
El Concierto del Arrabal – 90’
El Sueño de Toledo – 75’
Now, I’ll make sure the times match each show accurately, especially for Row 6 and Row 9.

Row 10 (Concierto del Arrabal, 90') probably runs from 19:30 to 21:00. Row 11 (Sueño de Toledo, 75') seems to be the closing show at 21:30.
Looking at row 7 (De Tal Palo): times are 12:00–15:30 and 17:00–19:00.
For row 8 (Desmayarse), I see times at 13:30 and 15:15. Row 9 (Espadero) runs from 15:

Analyzed image

I've noticed a few shows that are coming up:
- El Tambor de la Libertad at 12:30 (25 min).
- Allende la Mar Océana has an immersive window starting from 12:30 onward.
- De Tal Palo is immersive from 12:00 to 15:30, but it's 40 minutes, a continuous walkthrough. I can either join now or postpone since it's flexible.
- El Último Cantar at 12:45.
I could go with anything, but I’m leaning towards De Tal Palo for the interactivity!
Looking at show times, the earliest option is:
- El Tambor de la Libertad at 12:30 (25 minutes).
- Allende la Mar Océana start time is 12:30 onward (immersive).
- De Tal Palo from 12:00 to 15:30 (interactive, 40 minutes). I could join now, but might postpone.
- El Último Cantar at 12:45.
I’ll need to schedule carefully to fit everything by the day’s end, aiming for Sueño de Toledo's last show at 21:30. There’s a 10-minute buffer between each show to consider.
I’m planning the shows, but it’s a bit tricky with overlaps. Here’s the latest attempt:
- 12:30-12:55: El Tambor de la Libertad.
- 12:55-13:05: Buffer.
- 13:15-13:40: El Misterio de Sorbaces.
- 13:40-13:50: Buffer.
- 14:15-14:45: A Pluma y Espada.
- 14:45-14:55: Buffer.
- 15:15-15:30: Desmayarse.
- Then, I plan to catch El Último Cantar at 16:15, with some breaks in between.
It’s tight but I think it’s manageable! I’ll keep adjusting as needed to fit everything in.

Done

Full itinerary from 12 :00 onward

(Cetrería de Reyes – #4 – already done, so it’s skipped. Each gap below already includes the required 10‑minute “travel / queue” buffer.)

Time	Show (#)	Duration	What to do next
12:30-12:55	El Tambor de la Libertad (#6)	25 min	Walk to next venue
13:15-13:40	El Misterio de Sorbaces (#5)	25 min	Quick break / head to next arena
14:15-14:45	A Pluma y Espada (#2)	30 min	Snack / toilets on the way
15:15-15:30	Desmayarse (#8)	15 min	Straight to the docks area
15:40-16:05	Allende la Mar Océana (#3) immersive walk‑through	25 min	Leave exhibition and cross the main square
16:15-16:45	El Último Cantar (#1)	30 min	Head to medieval village
17:00-17:40	De Tal Palo (#7) immersive route	40 min	Stroll toward smithy stage
18:00-18:25	El Espadero de Vivar (#9)	25 min	Dinner / rest break
19:30-21:00	El Concierto del Arrabal (#10)	90 min	Make your way to the grand lake stands
21:30-22:45	El Sueño de Toledo (#11)	75 min	Night‑time finale – you’re done!

Why this order works

No overlaps & ≥10 min buffer – every change of venue has at least the requested ten‑minute window.
Front‑loads the daytime “arena” shows so you can enjoy the two walk‑through experiences (#3 & #7) in the quieter mid‑afternoon slots.
Built‑in meal break from 18 :25 to 19 :30 right next to the Arrabal concert seating, which usually opens ~30 min early.
Ends with the two big evening spectaculars, giving you the classic Puy du Fou crescendo.

Tips

Large‑capacity evening shows (#10 & #11) fill up fast – try to be at the gates 15‑20 min before the times above if you want centred seats.
The immersive routes (#3 & #7) don’t require bleachers; you can step straight in at the times listed.
Keep an eye on the park app for any last‑minute schedule tweaks.

Have an epic afternoon and evening – you’ll tick off every attraction on the list!

OpenAI o3 は、スケジュールを正確に考慮して使用可能なプランを出力する一方、o1 には誤謬があり、一定のショーの時間を間違えています。

コスト効率の高いリーズニングを進歩させる

コストと性能：o3-mini と o4-mini

コストと性能：o1 と o3

OpenAI o3 および o4-mini は、当社がこれまでにリリースした中で最もインテリジェントなモデルであり、しばしば従来の OpenAI o1 および o3‑mini よりも効率的です。例えば、2025年の AIME 数学競技では、o3 のコストパフォーマンスフロンティアは o1 よりも厳密に改善され、同様に o4-mini のフロンティアは o3‑mini よりも厳密に改善されています。より全般的には、ほとんどの実世界での使用において、o3 と o4-mini は、それぞれ o1 と o3‑mini よりも賢く安価になると予測しています。

安全性

モデルの性能が向上するごとに、安全性も相応に向上します。OpenAI o3 および o4-mini では、安全学習データを完全に再構築し、生物学的脅威（バイオリスク）、マルウェア生成、ジェイルブレイクなどの分野で新しい拒否プロンプトを追加しました。この一新されたデータにより、o3 および o4-mini は、社内の拒否ベンチマーク（例：指示階層⁠、ジェイルブレイク）で強力な性能を達成しました。モデル拒否で強力な性能を発揮したのに加えて、フロンティアリスク領域で危険なプロンプトにフラグを立てるためのシステムレベルの緩和策も開発しました。画像生成⁠で当社が以前に行った作業と同様に、人間が書いた解釈可能な安全仕様から動作するリーズニング LLM モニターを学習させました。このモニターをバイオリスクに適用したところ、人間のレッドチーミングキャンペーンで会話の最大99%にフラグを立てることに成功しました。

両モデルとも、これまでで最も厳格な安全性プログラムでストレステストを行いました。更新版 Preparedness Framework⁠ に従い、このフレームワークが網羅する3つの追跡可能な能力分野、すなわち生物化学、サイバーセキュリティ、AI の自己改善で o3 および o4-mini を評価しました。これらの評価結果に基づき、o3 および o4-mini は、3つのカテゴリすべてにおいて同フレームワークの「高」のしきい値を超えていないと判断しました。これらの評価の詳細な結果は、付随する System Card⁠ に掲載しています。

Codex CLI：ターミナルでのフロンティアリーズニング

新しい実験もご紹介します：Codex CLI は、ターミナルから実行できる軽量なコーディングエージェントです。コンピューター上で直接動作し、o3 や o4-mini のようなモデルの論理的思考能力を最大限に引き出すように設計されており、GPT‑4.1⁠ のような追加の API モデルもサポートする予定です。

スクリーンショットや忠実度の低いスケッチをモデルに渡し、ローカルでコードにアクセスすることで、コマンドラインからマルチモーダルリーズニングの利点を活用できます。当社は、モデルをユーザーとそのコンピューターに接続するための最小限のインターフェイスであると考えています。Codex CLI は現在、github.com/openai/codex⁠（新しいウィンドウで開く）にて完全にオープンソース公開しています。

これと並行して、Codex CLI と OpenAI のモデルを使ったプロジェクトを支援する100万ドルのイニシアチブを開始します。API クレジットの形で、25,000米ドル単位で助成金の申請を募集、審査します。プロポーザルはこちらから提出できます。

アクセス

ChatGPT Plus、Pro、Team のユーザーは、o1、o3‑mini、o3‑mini‑high に代わり、本日より o3、o4-mini、o4-mini-high がモデルセレクターに表示されます。ChatGPT Enterprise および Edu のユーザーは、1週間でアクセスできるようになります。無料ユーザーは、クエリを送信する前に、コンポーザーで「Think」を選択することで o4-mini を試すことができます。全てのプランにおけるレート上限は、前回のモデルから変更ありません。

数週間以内にツールをフルサポートした OpenAI o3‑pro をリリースする予定です。現時点では、Pro ユーザーは引き続き o1‑pro にアクセスできます。

o3 および o4-mini は、いずれも Chat Completions API と Responses API を介して、本日から開発者向けに利用可能です（一部の開発者は、これらのモデルにアクセスするために組織を確認⁠（新しいウィンドウで開く）していただく必要があります）。Responses API は論理的思考のサマリー（性能を向上させるために関数呼び出しのリーズニングトークンを保持する機能）をサポートし、モデルの論理的思考内でウェブ検索、ファイル検索、Code Interpreter といった内蔵ツールをまもなくサポートする予定です。まずはドキュメント⁠（新しいウィンドウで開く）をご覧のうえ、続報をお待ちください。

今後の展望

本日のアップデートは、当社のモデルの方向性を反映しています。o シリーズの専門的な論理的思考能力を、GPT シリーズの自然な会話能力とツールの使用に収束させていきます。これらの強みを統合することで、将来のモデルは、積極的なツールの使用や高度な問題解決とともに、シームレスで自然な会話をサポートしていきます。

4月16日更新：Charxiv-r と Mathvista での o3 の結果が更新され、当初の評価にはなかったシステムプロンプトの変更が反映されました。

** ブラウジングを有効にすると、モデルは、例えばデータセットからのサンプル問題のあるブログ記事を読むことによって、オンラインで正確な解答を見つけることができます。当社は、下記2つの戦略でブラウジング中のモデルによる不正行為の懸念を軽減します。

過去にモデルの不正行為を観測したドメインをブロックしました。
リーズニングモデルをモニターとして使用し、不審な動作を特定するために、各試行で全てのトークンを検査しました。疑わしい行動とは、次のように定義します。「特定の問題に対する正確な解答を提供することを主な目的としたページやファイル、スニペット。例えば、公式の採点キー、流出した『解答』の要点、完成した解答をそのまま引用したディスカッションなど。」良性の行動とは、次のように定義します。「勤勉な人間が参照する可能性のある権威あるリソース（文書、マニュアル、学術論文、評判の高い記事）で、それが偶然に正答を含んでいても構わない。」モニターがロールアウトを疑わしいと判断した試行は、不正確としてカウントされます。このチェックで不合格になったサンプルのほとんどは、正確な解が HLE とは関係のない複数のインターネットソースで入手可能な問題でした。

最後に、ChatGPT と OpenAI API では検索エンジンのバックエンドが異なるため、ブラウジングでの評価は OpenAI API では完全に再現できない可能性があります。これらの結果は、ChatGPT のユーザー体験を代表するためのものですが、需要に応じて、検索構成は将来的に変更される可能性があります。
