In the demo, O1 implements an incorrect version of the "squirrel finder" game?

The instructions state that the squirrel icon should spawn after three seconds, yet it spawns immediately in the first game (also noted by the guy doing the demo).

Edit: I'm referring to the demo video here: https://openai.com/index/introducing-openai-o1-preview/




Yeah, now that you mention it I also see that. It was clearly meant to spawn after 3 seconds. Seems on successive attempts it also doesn't quite wait 3 seconds.

I'm kind of curious if they did a little bit of editing on that one. Almost seems like the time it takes for the squirrel to spawn is random.
