The hurdle for OpenAI is going to be on the profit side. Google has their own hardware acceleration and their own data centers. OpenAI has to pay a monopolist for hardware acceleration and beholden to another tech giant for data centers. Never mind that Google can customize it's hardware specifically for it's models. The only way for OpenAI to really get ahead on solid ground is to discover some sort of absolute game…

> OpenAI has to pay a monopolist for hardware acceleration and beholden to another tech giant for data centers. Don't they have a data center in progress as we speak? Seems by now they're planning on building not just one huge data center in Texas, but more in other countries too.

I found all the previous Gemini models somewhat inferior even compared to Claude 3.7 Sonnet (and much worse than 4) as my coding assistants. I'm keeping an open mind but also not rushing to try this one until some evaluations roll in. I'm actually baffled that the internet at large seems to be very pumped about Gemini but it's not reflective of my personal experience. Not to be that tinfoil hat guy but I smell at lea…

Is there a no brainer alternative to Claude Code where I can try other models?

I just realized that Opus 4 is the first model that produced "beautiful" code for me. Code that is simple, easy to read, not polluted with comments, no unnecessary crap, just pretty, clean and functional. I had my first "wow" moment with it in a while. That being said it occasionally does something absolutely stupid. Like completely dumb. And when I ask it "why did you do this stupid thing", it replies "oh yeah, you'…

> Code that is simple, easy to read, not polluted with comments, no unnecessary crap, just pretty, clean and functional I get that with most of the better models I've tried, although I'd probably personally favor OpenAI's models overall. I think a good system prompt is probably the best way there, rather than relying in some "innate" "clean code" behavior of specific models. This is a snippet of what I use today for…

Impressive seeing Google notch up another ~25 ELO on lmarena, on top of the previous #1, which was also Gemini! That being said, I'm starting to doubt the leaderboards as an accurate representation of model ability. While I do think Gemini is a good model, having used both Gemini and Claude Opus 4 extensively in the last couple of weeks I think Opus is in another league entirely. I've been dealing with a number of gn…

I’ve been giving the same tasks to claude 4 and gemini 2.5 this week and gemini provided correct solutions and claude didn’t. These weren’t hard tasks either, they were e.g. comparing sql queries before/after rewrite - Gemini found legitimate issues where claude said all is ok.
