A fifth of the cost of Opus 5! Google is certainly pushing the completion with this.

Gemini hasn't failed me for personal usage yet. I haven't had the opportunity to use it at work.

  • I've been using 3.7 Flash to audit the work of Opus High, and Flash finds lots of subtle and insidious defects even while all the unit tests are green.

    Then I tell Opus to read the audit report and implement what it agrees with.

    Flash is really good at this, and it is blazing fast in Antigravity CLI. Easily 10x faster than Opus.

    Can't wait to try 3.8 Flash. If it's good enough, maybe I'll switch Flash to primary and make Opus the auditor.

    • it's very fast but it still doesnt come close to 5.6 sol, at least for me, in terms of gathering the context necessary to do extensive changes.

    • Yeah the speed in agy cli is amazing. Whole files get written and "py_compile"d in a single blink of the eye its crazy.

      In india, my telco gives me google ai pro for free. And agy with flash goes a long way.

  • Idk, was building/maintaining simple esp32 control program with antig/opus. After last update it defaulted to gflash3.7. I pasted an email requesting 2 changes into the chat prompt, it did one and took me 4 turns to get that one right.
