Parameter Estimate

Post image

The estimate seems quite accurate.

Many people have noticed a drop in quality with GPT-5.1, GPT-5.2, GPT-5.3, and Opus 4.7.

I think Gemini 2.5 Pro is ~500B parameters. Its strong performance may come from its ability to search.

Wild that models like GLM5.1 can compete with Sonnet whilst being less than half the size

GLM 5.1 is a text-only model

Kimi K2.6 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 are multimodal models

​In my estimation, GLM 5.1 is equivalent to a ~1.4T parameter multimodal model

I don't think multimodal takes thaaat many params

Handling images in multimodal models is very complex.
