It's almost like watching a stoned centipede having a panic attack about moving its legs. It also makes it obvious that these models (not just R1 I suppose) need to learn some kind of priority estimation to stop overthinking irrelevant issues and leave them to the normal token prediction, while focusing on the stuff that matters. Nevertheless, R1's reasoning chains are already shorter in tokens than o1's while having similar results, and apparently o3-mini's too.
