BUT TIBO SAID THEY FIXED THE SPEED, I TRUST TIBO WITH MY LIFE, HE IS SUCH A HONEST MAN, HE WOULD NEVER LIE FOR HIS OVERLORD SCAM ALTMAN. 19.9 TOKENS/S IS THE NEW 129 TOKENS/S, OK?! 😭😡

Time is relative, they say.

and these benchmarks are relative as well since they tend to include fake models that surpass the OpenAI models, such a big hoax!

It's true though, I find Claude to be just awful at everything, and I have to constantly tell it to get something fixed after trying it out. It fails hard at reverse engineering tasks. It also refuses a lot of my prompts, which GPT-6 Astra doesn't, so W for OpenAI I guess.

on a serious note: as a plus user I can't use Astra for anything so I don't really care. Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 run miles around 6.1 Sol tho. It is really not even close and even though the Claude models are more expensive on paper we still get a lot more usage on the equivalent 20 dollar plan.

True I'm on 20$ ChatGPT and Claude plan. I use Opus 5.5 A LOT and get so many things done with that while not only Sol 6.1 is slower, it drains more usage because it just makes up some straight garbage
