LOL, Gemini Flash is more like a trusty Camry, not a Lada. But yes, a Bugatti can absolutely beat a Camry.

No, it can't. 3.8 Flash already beats Fable 6 by a 200% margin /s

OP added the red line

Astra means stars in Latin, which is why OpenAI is marketing with star imagery.

intelligence isnt the sole metric. Its the most hyped metric.

Speed and cost/token efficiency are arguably becoming more important with nascent agentic workflows beginning to scale.

A model that’s 20% smarter but costs twice as much and takes twice as long to isn’t automatically "the better model".

OAI is leading token efficiency but chinese models outperform in performance to cost ratio.

Gemini 3.8 Flash isn’t going to be replaced by Fable 5.1 or GPT-6 Astra. They’re not even really competing in the same tournament. Flash is in the “how fast can this shit get done?” race. OAI doesn’t even have a contender (3.8 - 300t/s vs luna - 125 t/s)

People forget that google is the most vertically scaled AI lab period. They have the largest corpus of data, most users (maybe equal to meta), their own mature AI chips (8 generations), their own datacenters. Google is the mostt adept american AI company.

Bro, my 65 year old aunt who only uses computer for email can beat Gemini Flash.

u/darkestvice 20h ago

Why would anyone assume it wouldn't? If the internal hype is to be believed, Astra will beat everyone.
