OpenAI o3-mini Reasoning Model Released for AI Assisted Coding

OpenAI has released o3-mini  (“o” for “Omni, not zero”) which is a step up in performance from o1-mini.  I have been reviewing OpenAI’s performance charts their new o3 reasoning model and it is scoring pretty well on CodeForces, Software Engineering (SWE-bench verified), and on LiveBench coding.  We will continue testing their o1 & o3 reasoning models against our Kidware Software code base to see how well it performs here at Kidware Software.   The performance charts below are from OpenAI o3 Announcement Blog.
