Seriously, why aren't more people talking about how good o3-mini is for code generation?
If feels all the hype is always around the latest models, Claude 3.7, GPT 4.5, but honestly, if you're a developer, o3 seems to be far better at coding (backed by the official OpenAI numbers). It feels hands down like the best model out there right now, AND it is one of the relatively cheaper ones, certainly compared to the newer releases by OpenAI or other model vendors.
