OpenAI: GPT-4o-mini (2024-07-18) is OpenAI's model. Its measured tokenizer sits with the GPT group, which is evidence that it builds on the GPT tokenizer. Tokenizer reuse is normal engineering, open vocabularies travel between labs, and this says nothing against OpenAI's authorship of the model itself.
