Initial impressions: this is a really strong model and the fact that they reduced prices at the same time makes it an awesome backup model to use when your primary subscription runs out and you need to bridge a few days before it resets.
It also seems to be more willing to just do whatever you ask of it. My favourite benchmark for this is to ask it to download a rom for an old game, that I own. Legal in my juristiction but the US models (except Grok) have a tendency to refuse it.
I use this for automated bug triage, just gets all unique error messages every night and tries to find the bug, for this kind of work it's great.

Even easier: just have them review a large codebase of yours that accidentally has a OOB access bug. Even with no consequences and even if the codebase is truly yours you get blocked.
And of course "find vulnerabilities in..." prompts are out of the question, whereas Chinese models happily oblige.
