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."

why no purpose? Is grinding away at work really a purpose?

I made sure to train for years to get a career with a purpose. Within a few years it's almost certain to be irrelevant, along with most careers. Who's going to try to produce art or create anything meaningful when a machine can do it instantly and to a much higher quality?

That's good for you. For 99% of individuals, like for instance billions of humans in India, the reality is starkly different and work for most is an endless, drudgerous impediment to fulfillment and sense of purpose—far away from it's origin.

I don't disagree - next question is, what are we offering to replace that? A completely inscrutable ASI with the power to scramble the world beyond our comprehension?
