We put the top three Code Arena models head-to-head: Opus 4.5 Thinking 32k, Opus 4.5, and Gemini 3 Pro. They’re just 20 points apart. Same tough prompts, different results. Here’s what stood out. Remember, your votes drive the rankings. Watch how these contenders move on the leaderboard as more...

Sorry babes, you were all wrong. I put Gemini 3, Claude Opus-4.5, and GPT-5.1 Codex head to head in a one shot design battle, and one was the clear winner. Find out which on this week's mini ep of How I AI: Big 💜 to this week's sponsor, Lovable

claude opus 4.5 is finally here, so we tested it against gemini 3 to see which one is the better at vibe coding we took a new startup idea and went from idea to landing page to prototype to ad creative in one sitting. you also see how The Boring Marketer uses claude skills to get the most out of claude opus 4.5 (and how you can do the same). if you’re wondering whether opus 4.5 is worth using, this 1hr tutorial will help you decide and learn how to get the most from it.

GLM 4.7 is one of the top open-source models on LM Arena—and it's going toe-to-toe with Claude Opus 4.5 and Gemini Pro. We sat down with Anastasios Nikolas Angelopoulos, co-founder and CEO of Arena.ai, to break down 8,000+ developer votes: → Within 30 points of Gemini Pro in math & coding → Frontier-level multi-turn & instruction following → The open-source model devs are actually switching to The best part? You can run it at 1,500+ tokens/sec on Cerebras—for free.

👨‍💻Have you tested models in the new Code Arena yet? In this thread, we’re showcasing real Gemini 3 Pro by Google DeepMind creations and the exact prompts used, all of them built inside the Code Arena. You can directly compare Gemini’s outputs against other top frontier models on real web development tasks. Build, compare, vote, and share your own creations directly from the chat. See examples in the thread. 🧵

OPUS 4.6 WAS NERFED DUE TO DEMAND BUT OPUS 4.5 DOES NOT SEEM TO BE HIT this guy ran the same test on both models. Opus 4.6 fails consistently but Opus 4.5 passes every time he switched back to Opus 4.5 on Claude Code and said "what a difference, feels like i got Opus back finally" he is now using this test as a "quantization canary" that runs it at the start of every session before doing real work. if it fails, the model is degraded. five Opus 4.6 windows in a row failed the untransparent nerfing is pushing people to cancel their Max plans if you've been feeling like Opus got dumber lately, you're not imagining it i'd suggest switching to Opus 4.5 to see the difference for yourself

Opus 4.5 is insane. Just shipped v2 of my compounding engineering plugin—watch the video for my full thoughts on the model. Compounding engineering plugin v2: This wouldn't have worked a week ago. Previous models would derail after the second parallel thread. Opus 4.5 held the context, made the right decisions, and shipped clean pull requests to both repos. New in the plugin: codify command (captures learnings automatically), updated plan mode, better prompting patterns for Opus 4.5's strengths. If you're coding with Claude, this is your new daily driver.

Opus 4.5 is absolutely goated. I built AN ENTIRE VIDEO EDITING APPLICATION FOR WINDOWS IN ABOUT AN HOUR. No tricks. No special prompts, no prompt driven dev. Just me, Visual Studio Code, and Opus 4.5 having a convo via the mic. I feel like this is what we were promised, and it's here.

I've been trying to move from imperative prompting to declarative prompting. • Imperative prompting: I tell the agent how to do something. • Declarative prompting: I describe my goal to the agent. This was impossible before, but since Opus 4.5, I'm letting models fill in the blanks more and more. I recorded a video using Quest + Opus 4.5. This is a coding agent designed specifically for this purpose.

Yesterday we found out Qwen3.5-27B (dense) beats both the 35B and 122B MoE variants at UI replication from screenshots. Today's question: what about Jackrong's Qwen3.5-27B-Claude-Opus-4.6-Reasoning-Distilled? A distilled 27B with Claude Opus 4.6 reasoning baked in. So I put all 3 in the ring: - Qwen3.5-27B - Qwen3.5-27B-Claude-Opus-Distilled - Claude Opus 4.6 Since the distilled model isn't multimodal, I gave all three the same detailed text prompts describing the UI components from yesterday's test.

Claude Opus 4.8 beats Opus 4.7, GPT-5.5, and Gemini 3.1 Pro !! We ran a multimodal gaming comparison across these four closed source models. Opus 4.8 took the longest to generate, but it came out ahead, capturing the most elements from the prompt and successfully hitting the rival cars. GPT 5.5 is still good, but Gemini is no longer the best multimodal model now

Our engineers have found that Opus 4.5 handles ambiguity and reasons about tradeoffs without hand-holding. When pointed at a complex, multi-system bug, it figures out the fix. Overall, Opus 4.5 just "gets it."
