I didn't think they'd actually release a model that was worse than the open-weight frontier and at a higher price-point. Wow.
Why did the other reply to this get flagged as dead? It was a comment about how someone would come out saying that Sonnet 5 would be better on the pelican test and therefore it has to be good. But I guess HN loves pelican SVGs so much that you're not allowed to criticize it.
That's yet to be determined. I think a lot of open-weight models are benchmaxxed and their usefulness for many tasks are not represented by those.
