I would have split this up, but we are still behind, with the following posts still due in the future:
Grok 4.20, which is a disappointment.
Gemini 3.1 Pro, which is an improvement but landed with a relative whimper.
I find these kinds of posts the least valuable of your (extremely valuable) blog. By “this kind” I mean “Responses to an individual model less than a week after it is released.” I find your other articles more enlightening, helpful and entertaining. I wouldn’t mind if there were more of those and less of these. In fact, I wouldn’t mind if there were less of these and no replacement, and you got more relaxed. You started these in an age when an individual model release was more of a big deal. As we approach the Singularity the releases are getting closer and closer together; eventually you’re going to have to do something.
Perhaps you could combine them into a “new models this week” post?
I didn’t send this for a long time because I felt like it was complaining about free ice cream. But here I am, telling you that there’s not enough nuts.
