Making Gemini Flash Rival Opus
pbaylies · x · 2026-07-14
A reshared post claims that a specific technique can make Gemini Flash perform like Opus, retaining about 92% of its capability on short to medium-length tasks.
The author also noted that on their own validation set for SWE Pro tasks, wr% increased from 60% to 78%, with similar improvements for Luna and Sol. The overall conclusion is that this method is "wild" and can significantly boost performance without upgrading to a larger model.
