Non-rhetorically, why would someone pay for o3 api now that I can get this open model from openai served for cheaper? Interesting dynamic... will they drop o3 pricing next week (which is 10-20x the cost[1])?

[1] currently $3M in/ $8M out https://platform.openai.com/docs/pricing

Not even that, even if o3 being marginally better is important for your task (let's say) why would anyone use o4-mini? It seems almost 10x the price and same performance (maybe even less): https://openrouter.ai/openai/o4-mini

Probably because they are going to announce gpt 5 imminently
