o3-mini is not accesible

Describe the bug

I am trying to use o3-mini for my python project but I get an error saying this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/openai/dev/ai_benchmark/ai_benchmark.py", line 41, in <module>

By the way, this issue happens on both windows and wsl.

To Reproduce

Create a chat completion
Write o3-mini for the model.
Run the project.

from openai import OpenAI

expected_answer = "20"

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="sk-svcacct-ywHeOzoW_qM0hLasab662PDBc4TDg1ofqKfGXBFQpQEv5vhVWpy3jjVPGwSDYicl6eoeT3BlbkFJAUNZUxO3bbEAGOjFzutFUUF8ugM9mH4d1jICgcVvolee32pC8iDy9MpSrbg-KrI9YccA"
)

def send_question(ai_model, question):
    stream = client.chat.completions.create(
        model=ai_model,
        messages=[
            {
                "role": "system",
                "content": "Answer the asked math questions like this (assuming asked question is 2+2): '4'. When writing a float, write with a comma: '4,5'."
            },
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": question
            }
        ],
        stream=True,
    )
    
    for chunk in stream:
        if chunk.choices[0].delta.content is not None:
            answer = chunk.choices[0].delta.content
    
    return answer

models = [
    "gpt-4",
    "gpt-4o-mini"
    "chatgpt-4o-latest",
    "o1-mini",
    "o1",
    "o3-mini"
]

for i in range(len(models)):
    answer = send_question(models[i - 1], "What is 4 * 4 + 4?")
    if answer == expected_answer:
        print("Test passed!")
    else:
        print("Test failed!")

By the way, please correct if I'm wrong. I am a newbie.

Thanks for reporting!

This sounds like an issue with the underlying OpenAI API and not the SDK, so I'm going to go ahead and close this issue.
