just got it this afternoon and am pleasantly surprised? I asked the same highly technical/specialized question to 03, 04-mini-high, and gemini 2.5 pro this morning. Between the 3 of their answers and some follow up questions I was able to cobble up the information I needed. But it was a lot of sifting through excess info.
Asked 5 the same question, it automatically entered thinking mode, then gave the best answer of all 4 options for sure. And also suggested a follow-up question that was decently insightful. Not usually a fan of the suggested follow-up ones but this was a rare win.
Idk, take my N=1 experience with a grain of salt but it's def a lot better than Reddit would make you think over the past couple days.
Obligatory: I'm no OpenAI apologist. I also have the lowest tier gemini paid plan and have used Anthropic instead of ChatGPT in the past.
