I’m still waiting for real world results that match Sonnet 4.5.

Some of the open models have matched or exceeded Sonnet 4.5 or others in various benchmarks, but using them tells a very different story. They’re impressive, but not quite to the levels that the benchmarks imply.

Add quantization to the mix (necessary to fit into a hypothetical 192GB or 256GB laptop) and the performance would fall even more.

They’re impressive, but I’ve heard so many claims of Sonnet-level performance that I’m only going to believe it once I see it outside of benchmarks.
