Right after Gemini 4 Argon launched, Sammy Sidhu's team ran a quick bakeoff of Astra vs Argon vs Opus on action segmentation in egocentric video, scored against Eventual's golden set:
- Accuracy: Astra 59.4 > Argon 55.3 > Opus 48.7
- Astra remains king of the frontier models, but all three are a long way from annotation-grade quality
A rare benchmark in the niche of first-person video understanding, offering a concrete slice of day-one model capability.
