Not so far at least. I did notice that certain prompts work better for certain use-cases and nudge the model more towards a personality that seems to respond to question at the correct depth.
Did notice, that at least for explaining things in presentation slides, Gemini 3 Flash is almost equivalent and is much faster and cheaper.
What topics are you trying to cover? I am currently mostly trying ML/Linalg Math, these might be easy for current models.
Reading some of the recent writings by Dario Amodei (https://www.darioamodei.com/essay/the-adolescence-of-technology#3-the-odious-apparatus) or things he has said in recent interviews (e.g. his recent interview with Dwarkesh Patel), he still seems to be highlighting the risk of China in regards to authoritarianism and misuse of AI and strongly contends that US hegemony in AI is different.
Given the recent events, there seems to be a risk that needs to be addressed that any AI company can essentially be coopted by any government to perform directly harmful or longer term irresponsible tasks (unaligned SOTA AI in military adjacent use is essentially nightmare fuel or anyone worried about alignment). And from a european perspective the core american institutions seem increasingly fragile. Is there even a reason to single out countries like China in such a discussion, as it doesn’t look like the US is being a particularly responsible actor in regards to AI safety?
