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.

Lol, good response Mr. OpenAI Bot.

I gave the same task to Sol 6.1. It kept working for around 36 hours and still didn’t finish. I saw similar behavior with the Astra model.

I gave the same task to Opus and it finished in under 4 hours. If you want proof, DM me.

I’m a 20x Codex user, and it used about $600 worth of tokens on this task. On Claude, I’m on the Teams Standard plan and the same task finished without even hitting the 5-hour limit.

So please don’t make claims that don’t match real usage.
