yeah or a lot of people can just fake progress by attaching whatever viral tag onto their glue code. I mean to start with, unless you do a bit of fine-tuning + rlhf there's no way to do it o1-like.

I started building up like 10 or so of these conversations where after like 100 messages it gets the right answer and it was like hmm, I wonder if they are using this.
just my rambles
