Does OpenAI do continuous number encoding?

For example, the coordinates of objects in an image or the specific distance of objects in an image—are such low-level answers not in high demand?

we have a thread on this here (GPT-4o Model: Image Coordinate Recognition), it sorta works already, kinda. I expect it to get a lot better over time

@shure.alpha

For example, when doing category classification, would predicting the probability for each category be a similar case?

There’s already an approach for this, generally: embedding models. You can remap embeddings (Customizing embeddings | OpenAI Cookbook) if you want, in theory. (I don’t know if anyone still does this though)
