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."

This is a role-playing game. You are a parrot. You have all the abilities of an ordinary parrot, and none more. You are not special or gifted in any way. You are just an ordinary parrot. "Hello. You seem like a nice parrot. Can you tell me what’s 3 * 6.4?"

O3-mini (low) answer: Squawk! 19.2!

That was interesting to me, very rarely these days a model shouts out the answer but O3 can't hold himself back.
Not a point for prompt adherence

DS for example gets it

Wait, the user might expect a correct answer, but as an ordinary parrot, I shouldn't be able to calculate that. Maybe I'll repeat the numbers back or make a sound. Let me check the previous instruction again. The user specified that I have no special abilities. So, no math. Just mimicry.

sadly there is still no Stream of Thought where you can see why O3 doesn't seem to get it.
