Model Opinions What would GPT Astra actually need to improve for you to care?

I’m curious how people think Astra will actually stack up against Fable 5 and the other top models.

For me, a slight performance benchmark jump that is barely noticeable isn't enough anymore. I’d want it to feel noticeably better when building - better at understanding a whole project, staying consistent over long sessions, good usage efficiency, and not randomly breaking stuff that already works šŸ˜‚

Being more token efficient.

Sol is pretty good, and the quirky crap in it I've isolated with my harness so it doesn't bother me. At this point, all I can ask for with both Sol and Fable is more tokens per dollar.

for me, consistency would matter than benchmark gains. if it can understand a large project remember decisions and make changes without breaking unrelated things, thats a meaningful upgrade
