I’m flocking from GPT to opus every week for the past 3 months and always come back.
The point isn’t that gpt is better, it’s that it is so much better for my work it isn’t even sticky, it’s reinforced concrete. I use opus 1% of the time because it writes better and it’s sticky there.
Yes I’ll switch approximately immediately if opus or Gemini (which I use more than opus!) is better for what I do, but at this point frontier model tokens are not fungible.
There will always be dataset and training quirks, and the provider’s own biases and focus, granting one model an edge over the others in some specific domain.
Yup and that’s where the moats are.
