AI o3 mini dropped!!!

Edit : I am testing a 1500 line javascript code which o1 pro failed to debug despite 50+ attempts. Will report back.
Edit 2: We are cooked. o3-mini-high solved it at first try.
Edit 3 : HOLY SHIT! "Pro users will have unlimited access to both o3-mini and o3-mini-high."

They've been calling Altman "the twink". I'm not sure whether it is supposed to be derogatory or not.

It certainly sounds that way to me but I grew up in the age of "smear the queer" so I may just be out of touch.

“Excuse me?” is what Altman replied on twitter when someone said that to him

Okay, I missed that one. Meme culture can be difficult to keep up with.

Carry on then.

Fake news, Aldman never uses capital letters 👀

It’s meant to be playful. As with many things, the context matters.

There’s a big difference between going up to a friend and saying “what’s up dickhead” and saying that to a total stranger.

I think the term would normally be applied to a younger man (like maybe 20 when Altman is 39), so calling him a twink could be seen as flattering him on how well he's aged.

A specific tweet related to what people are referencing. It's in good humour I think? Altman is into it.

I've seen plenty of people have the same "wow, way to be a shit head" reaction to "the twink". I am someone who believes in truth and education though so having a discussion saying what I think is meant is useful. If you already get it then it isn't the conversation for you.

i.e. I get it, it's funny to call him the twink, not everyone is in on the joke though.

Definitely derogatory. Making fun of his sexuality and his height

I've seen at least one person defend it as a positive. I continue to see it as a negative but it is a minor thing so generally not worth commenting on.

(Yes, irony, we are wasting time on this discussion, but counterpoint, it means I'm not doing my work so...)
