haider1 · x · 2026-09-27
A hands-on comparison: Opus 5.5 is the first model to genuinely impress this user on frontend design — building polished UIs and actually understanding what a frontend should look like, it is "ridiculously consistent." But when tasks get into hard technical problem-solving, GPT-6 Astra remains stronger. Takeaway: different strengths — Opus 5.5 for frontend output, Astra for deep reasoning.
