Jelly Lego physics test: Gemini 4 Argon beats Opus 5.5 at one-third the cost
vitaliychiley · x · 2026-10-15
- Same-prompt head-to-head generating jelly Lego bricks: both models ran stacking, brick pulls, top wiggles, mid-tower yanks, and a full box dump.
- Argon's bricks behave like real jelly — stretching toward the cursor, squishing on impact, swaying like pudding, folding and bouncing apart; Opus's are see-through plastic with laggy dragging and rigid falls. Argon also nailed the look: glossy, rounded, light glowing through.
- Cost: $3.45 for Argon vs $10.71 for Opus, roughly 3x cheaper.
