Theia AI and the AI-powered Theia IDE support GPT-4.5-preview by default!
February 28, 2025 | 2 min ReadGreat news for fans of cutting-edge AI: Theia AI and the AI-powered Theia IDE support the latest GPT-4.5-preview model right out of the box!
Wondering what’s new or haven’t heard of Theia AI yet? Be sure to check out the introduction to Theia AI and the dedicated AI-powered Theia IDE overview, or download the AI-powered Theia IDE today.
GPT-4.5 adds itself to Theia IDE automatically!
In the video below, we demonstrate how you can easily add the new models to the settings of the AI-powered Theia IDE and use it right away. To continue the new tradition started with week with Claude Sonnet-3.7, we then ask the model to integrate itself to the default list, so it will be available by default with the next release. As you can see, GPT-4.5-preview finds itself within the code base and integrates as a default model automatically! That’s right - no manual coding required.
Please be aware that GPT-4.5 is very large and compute-intensive (and therefore more expensive at the moment), so it might not be a replacement for your daily model, yet. This has been an exciting week for AI adopters, after the announcement of Claude Sonnet-3.7, we now have a second very promising new frontier model available and we are happy that Theia AI allows us to immediately evaluate both new options!
