I've had the opposite experience with some coding samples. After reading Nick Carlini's post, I've gotten into the habit of powering through coding problems with GPT (where previously I'd just laugh and immediately give up) by just presenting it the errors in its code and asking it to fix them. o1 seems to be effectively screening for some of those errors (I assume it's just some, but I've noticed that the o1 things I've done haven't had obvious dumb errors like missing imports, and all my 4o attempts have).
