SVG showdown: Opus 5.5 (High) vs GPT-6 Sol (High) on the same prompt
OriginalScrubLord · reddit · 2026-09-23
A Reddit user gave Opus 5.5 (High) and GPT-6 Sol (High) the same prompt—create an impressive SVG to farm clout on Reddit. Opus produced "Northern lights over a mountain lake": 100% vector code, no embedded images, with every star, aurora ray, pine tree and ripple procedurally generated by a Python script it wrote—"mind blowing" per the author. GPT-6 Sol made "The Universe Looks Back," a poster of a tiny observer under a huge eclipse, in 2m26s, slightly faster than Opus. The author leans toward Opus's fully procedural output.
