You may want to use the new "derestricted" variants of gpt-oss. While the ostensible goal of these variants is to de-censor them, it ends up removing the models' obsession with policy and wasting thinking tokens that could be used towards actually reasoning through a problem.
Great advice. Have you observed any other differences? I’ve been wondering if there are any specialized variants yet of GPT-OSS models yet that outperform on specific tasks (similar to the countless Llama 3 variants we’ve seen).
