I've ran Kimi-k3 through 34 oneshot prompts and evaluated the generated htmls, screenshots and gifs using sonnet 4.6. It came out to be better than opus4.8 from the evals. Kimi K3: https://oneshotlm.com/model/moonshotai-kimi-k3/ Opus 4.8: https://oneshotlm.com/model/anthropic-claude-opus-4-8/ Also opus costed $7.16 to go through all 34 prompts whereas $0.44 for kimi k3, so its token efficient as well.
