Nope, not what we’re doing. o3 is still o3 (no nerfing) and o3-pro is new and better than o3. If we were lying about this, it would be really easy to catch us - just run evals. (I work at OpenAI.)
Anecdotal, but about a week ago I noticed a sharp drop in o3 performance. For many tasks I will compare Gemini 2.5 Pro with o3, running the same prompt in both. Generally for my personal use o3 and G2.5P have been neck-and neck over the last months, with responses I have been very happy with. However starting from a week ago, the o3 responses became noticeably worse, with G2.5P staying about the same (in terms of wha…

What stories? Can you back up that claim with some sources please?

#394Only at HN can the reaction to an 80% price drop be a wall of criticism.

#395o3 is very much needed in VSCode GitHub CoPilot for Ask/Edit/Agent modes. It is sorely missing there.

I think modern face verification has moved on, it's been video in all my encounters.
still no real human is involved, as they mention their verification is automated and prohabilistic — which is especially funny to hear in context of verification. Im pretty sure even a kid can go around it, e.g. on the video showing a photo of a person holding his passport which you can find online.

#397Despite the popular take that LLMs have no moat and are burning cash, I find OpenAI's situation really promising. Just yesterday, they reported an annualized revenue run rate of 10B. Their last funding round in March valued them at 300B. Despite losing 5B last year, they are growing really fast - 30x revenue with over 500M active users. It reminds me a lot of Uber in its earlier years—fast growth, heavy investment, b…
I mean sure, it's very promising if OpenAI's future is your only metric. It gets notably darker if you look at the broader picture of ChatGPT (and company)'s impact on our society. * We have people uploading tons of zero-effort slop pieces to all manner of online storefronts, and making people less likely to buy overall because they assume everything is AI now * We have an uncomfortable community of, to be blunt, act…
Re: OpenAI dropped the price of o3 by 80%
#398I'd like to offer a cautionary tale that involves my experience after seeing this post. First, I tried enabling o3 via OpenRouter since I have credits with them already. I was met with the following: "OpenAI requires bringing your own API key to use o3 over the API. Set up here: https://openrouter.ai/settings/integrations " So I decided I would buy some API credits with my OpenAI account. I ponied up $20 and started…

There are stories about e.g. Hetzner requiring all sorts of data from people who want to open/verify accounts so perhaps not. Might just be an anti “money laundering” thing. Especially if the credit card company ends up refunding everything..
What stories? Can you back up that claim with some sources please?

This is almost certainly what they're doing and rebranding the original o3 model as "o3-pro"
Nope, not what we’re doing. o3 is still o3 (no nerfing) and o3-pro is new and better than o3. If we were lying about this, it would be really easy to catch us - just run evals. (I work at OpenAI.)
