It’s becoming ridiculously obvious that Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol absolutely destroy Opus and Fable in real-world tasks.
The only areas where Anthropic still has an edge are frontend taste and 3D game design.
But Tech Twitter is full of developers who think coding is the entire universe of AI. It’s not even close.
AI is so much bigger than writing code.
XDOF (@xdofai): OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol scored higher on our evaluations than their Anthropic counterparts, Fable 5.1 and Opus 5.5.
In fact, Sol scored even higher than Astra did.
