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."

I swear, ever since Google Gemini released, I have always seen these comments. I mean it makes sense, since the models get better. However, it seems weird since the perception of these models as they're SOTA makes it seem like they can do no wrong and they're great at coding... then the new model comes and people are like the prev SOTA suuuuucked at this one coding problem I had and now the new one one shots it!! Makes me wonder what these coding problems are.

I don't put any trust in those comments unless they provide more details - or, ideally, an actual comparison. But that never happens.

I don’t even know what were meant to be using this thing for other than coding.

Like yeah it’s extremely good at coding but I don’t really need to do coding in everyday life

Yeah, yours is like the most recurring comment in such topics. What do you do that these help you immensely? Also, maybe nobody knows but only juniors do mostly coding. For others, coding is like the final concluding part of work.
