When you net out across benchmarks and firsthand reviews it seems like it's maybe a little behind. There seems to be a consensus it's token hungry and a little slower. So maybe it's a point release behind.

That's weeks maybe months behind, not months maybe a year behind. It's "would my life really change if Claude was gone, not really" behind.

I actually haven't used it much, because Claude started kicking ass again the last few days. Like, way too much of a difference to be normal load-based variance. I got more done in the last 48 hours than week before that.

So, fuck yeah competition.
