bindureddy · x · 2026-07-21
A developer shared their recent experiences migrating workloads to new LLMs:
- Moved a big chunk of tasks from Anthropic's Opus to Sol 5.6.
- Tried using Kimi K3 but couldn't make any real progress due to its extremely slow response time.
- Praised OpenAI's GPT 5.6 for kicking serious ass, anticipating that GPT 6.0 will be much better.
