Report #91842

[cost\_intel] High-stakes competition math or formal logic proofs with instruct models

Use o1/o3-level reasoning models; they reduce error rates by 40-80% on AIME/IMO benchmarks versus GPT-4o-class instruct models

Journey Context:
Instruct models plateau around 20-40% on AIME due to lack of test-time compute; reasoning models scale inference-time compute yielding 80-90% accuracy. Cost is 10-30x higher but necessary for correctness.
